ChexSystems

Help for people that can't open a checking account because of ChexSystems listings! Information about contacting ChexSystems and disputing incorrect listings. Read this helpful report before you spend one penny on a list of non ChexSystems banks!

How it works:
Banks and credit unions report incidents to ChexSystems to protect themselves and other banks in the future. You get reported to ChexSystems if your account is closed for cause. What is for cause? Banks differ greatly between them as to what valid reasons are for closing an account. Here are some examples:

• Bank was unable to collect for an overdraft, ATM transaction, or automatic payment which they honored on insufficient funds. (Regardless of amount, and often without waiting more than a few days!)
• Multiple overdrafts.
• Savings Account, debit card or ATM abuse.
• Fraud.
• Providing false information in opening account.
