Free Online Checking
I have banked with Washington Mutual for a long time now and definitely recommend their free online checking account. This account has a number of features that you will not find elsewhere. Features include waived overdraft fees, free cash withdrawals, free checks for life, no monthly checking fees, free identity theft services, and cash back on debit card purchases. Washington Mutual also offers a savings account, with one of the highest rates in the U.S. In the current credit environment, it is best to go with an FDIC-insured institution like WaMu, one of the largest financial institutions in the nation.
Best of all, you can apply for Washington Mutual Free Checking over the web here. Or click here to find a WaMu branch near you.
