A special offering to open an account, called their “Primary Access”,from PNC Bank.So, especially for those with negatives records in their ChexSystems report previously now can show proof that “all items owed have been paid” accordingly.

However, be bare in mind that this is just a savings-only account.Still, with a savings account you can use online services such as PayPal which use EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) and ACH (Automated Clearing House) transactions.It is much easier.If you know some PNC Bank that offers this, please share it here so that everyone can benefits from it since i don’t have the source.

Some bank did not use chexsystems as their main checking account for bad records account holder.For an example,Capital Bank of North County has two branch locations, in Carlsbad.They actually uses Telecheck instead of ChexSystems e-fund upon verifying new accounts.

So, it is not the same system even though it is similar usage, which is to check account holder records.However, not all branches for Capital Bank of North Count uses Telecheck system.Most of them uses chexsystems e-fund to track previous records of people applying for accounts.So, just try it out Capital Bank of North County branches in Carlsbad.

For latest info on Non chexsystems checking account, please welcome, National Bank of Texas.For your information, National Bank of Texas has branch locations in places such as Decatur, Fort Worth, Richland, and Benbrook and either does not use Chex Systems or is at least willing to overlook it in most instances.

So if you are near in those locations said,perhaps you might want to try these National Bank of Texas branches to see whether you can get an account for approval or not.

Just got information that California Bank & Trust is starting to Non chexsystems checking account.Some reports that if you can show that all incidents have been paid accordingly without any bank problems,and also you can convince them you are not planning to do anything stupid like abusing your checking account with them, perhaps then can make an exception to their ChexSystems policy.Some said they will grant you an account.But it may differs from bank branch to branch since not the same person handling the account banks.California Bank & Trust had branches at TherHacienda Heights, Crenshaw, Pomona, Torrance-Del Amo, Gardena, Costa Mesa, La Palma, Long Beach, Oxnard, Alpine, Carlsbad, Temecula, Kearney Mesa, Vista, and La Jolla have all been reported as good without chexsystems bank check. However,Mountain View, Hacienda Heights and downtown Los Angeles were reported as bad.But it doesn’t hurt to try it either in case they already changed and accept non-chexsystems method.
