Rewards Checking
2 stars - cjdtech - Wednesday, December 8, 2010 - 9:16 AM

If you opened a rewards checking account when rates were better, close it now! They charged me a $10 fee for not meeting the ACH requirement, and they didn't even send me a disclosure ahead of time that stated such! Their site still maintains it is a "free" checking account when the requirements aren't met, but obviously there's strings to that.

What kind of financial institution changes the rules without fully notifying customers of the change and allowing them full access to those rules? FNEFCU would fit into that category.
