Hi Everyone

So I got a letter in the mail saying that our current bank (GE Bank Dencorp, Intuit Solutions) is no longer going to be in business as of February. 2 problems

# 1- I have horrible credit history (550 FICO score)

# 2- My benefits check gets deposited to that bank account (they do offer a debit card, but it can only be loaded by them- not a good solution for budgeting...

I have Bluebird American Express debit & checking alternative, but they don't allow govt payments...

I need an idea for a bank, Chase is out- massive fees.. preferably one that is entirely online..

Thanks

In general, credit unions are better than banks all around. You can check out a few in your area. . .some may have full online banking.
