Opened this account and was pretty easy and wanted to give a quick review for anyone interested in opening. First no hard credit check, they did send me a link on phone to take a picture of my license and that was it for verifying. Then they use edocument for signature. Funding account by ACH has a very low Max, $3k, was easy to work around it though. When I applied for CD I also applied for free checking account and was emailed the Certificate and Checking account info. I then went into my EBSB account to link, the only thing that makes it a little harder is you don't have online access until account is funded so I had to call the next day and they gave me the trial deposit amounts. Then I verified on EBSB and made the transfer. The next day I had access to Unibank online and the CD and checking account had the correct amounts in them. What was nice was I started this on 1/14 and that is opening date on CD, but money didnt leave my account till 1/17, so a few days of double interest :). On the couple times I did talk with someone there they were very friendly and helpful

Most reward checking accounts are free checking accounts. You don't have to worry about a monthly maintenance fee even if you don't meet the monthly debit card requirements.

If you're careful, you can avoid the monthly fee and be rewarded with a reward checking rate that's quite competitive in today's environment.

The following eChecking rates and requirements are listed at UniBank's...

UniBank is offering a very competitive rate of 3.00% APY on a 4-year CD special. Minimum deposit is $500. The CD specials with shorter terms are not nearly as competitive. These include a 1.50% APY 2-year CD and a 1.00% APY 1-year CD. On the plus side, these two shorter term CDs give you the option to step up to a higher rate once during the life of the account. These rates are listed in the bank's deposit rates page as of the morning of 3/14/2011.

As a comparison to CDs...
