NewLife4Me Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 I have the worst of the worst credit. My score with experian is only like 500 and I got approved.They only do a soft pull of experian. No chex check. I couldnt believe I got approve.If you need a real bank account I would suggest going to this specific bank . I applied onlione and got approved within 2 days.. Im so happy . I havent had a real bank account in years!Just apply on the Bank Of America website! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHK Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Why do I have the feeling that this poster doesn't know what chexsystems is?Believe me, they check it - EVERY TIME.If you don't have any records with chexsystems, it's a good thing. This means that you've never used your bank account to commit fraud against the bank, or bounced too many checks, or had an account close on you with a negative balance.Congratulations on being approved for your account, but a large bank like BofA will check Chexsystems every time.

CarolinaBlueEyes Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 you got lucky I have three accounts and BA was the only bank EVER to turn me down and they did a hard inquiry.. I am fine in chex systems.. I have accounts with three major banks.. checking and savings.. never had a problem until B0fA.. they pulled a total credit report... and yes they do check chex.. and I did it online as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LNY Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Of course BofA checks Chex. And they don't always pull Experian, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gt95stang302 Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 BofA closed me with a negative balance which I paid back promptly.Couldnt open an account with anyone... but BofA.That didnt make sense... but they opened one for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
