The ChexSystems provides deposit account verification services to its financial institution members to help them to identify checking account applicants that may have a history of poor account mishandling. Each item entered into the Chexsystems remains there for five years, unless the financial institution that filed the report requests its removal or Chexsystems becomes obligated to remove it under law. A negative chexsystems report can prevent you from opening up a checking or savings account in the United States.

According to the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act or (FACTA), you are entitled to a free copy of your ChexSystems consumer report, by request, once every 12-month period. See Free ChexSystems Report to find out more about the chexsystems report and how it affects whether or not you can get approved for a new checking account. You can also order your free chexsystems report and learn how to dispute any errors that may be listed on it.

How to dispute chexsystems Online?Ok, here some tips for you to implement in order to dispute chexsystems.All you need now is to list out everythings needed such as your social security number, driving license , all account holders’ name and do not forget on opening deposits if any.Ok now, we ready to go!

1-First of all Kept all your accounts positive (checking accounts and savings).Don’t
forget to settle all overdraft fees accordingly.

2-Make sure overdraft fees paid accordingly and most importantly you get release from the bank reported about you.In your chexsystems file include explanation into it by requesting your file report and then a writing note on dispute form available.Fax it or sent it through mail directly to chexsystems.

3-Don’t give up.Repeatedly try again and again.Did you know that bank and credit union managers have the option to override chexsystems by opening the account.However you need a strong reason.Ever heard about Chexsystems’ product called Audit Check?Audit check can track back all cases and eliminate/override customer negative report and allow a manager open the account.But it is still not a good practice since upper management not really agree with the method.

4-A lot of us know more than 80 percent banks and financial institutions apply chexsystems.So 20 percent bank do not use chexsystems.Popular one which people always talk about is Credit Union such as Pentagon Federal Credit Union and Navy Federal Credit Union.But still you have to show them your savings accounts.But this step 4 is the last one to use if step 1 to 3 did not works.

Ever heard about Technology Credit Union ?Well, this is one more list to take note in my personal list on Non chexsystems checking account.Technology Credit Union is in California,USA.It was reported it branch in Mountain View, Milpitas, San Jose, and Sunnyvale is a Non chexsystems checking account.

Technology Credit Union will overlook negatives in your ChexSystems record as long as you have a letter from the reporting bank or other proof that “all items owed have been paid”.Normally they require this.Why not try Technology Credit Union to see whether they are using chex systems to verify customer that previously have a bad record.
