ChexSystems Removal Resources You Can Use

Dealing with ChexSystems can be frustrating. Our number one recommendation for you is to sign up for our free email course (you can do it here). If you are on the ChexSystems list, you will have a hard time opening a new checking account, and at the best, you will probably have to open a second chance checking account or a prepaid debit card account (which is not necessarily bad). If you want the greatest chance of opening a new bank account with low fees, good check writing privileges, and a local branch, you need to put in a little effort and try to get off the ChexSystems list (it's well worth it!)

However, if you want to do it on your own, here are a few essential resources for you to use:

• Check out the articles about ChexSystems at www.StopChex.com.
• Read the stats at the FDIC showing that an estimated 87% of banks use ChexSystems to screen people before opening new accounts (put another way -- if you are on ChexSystems, you are going to have a VERY difficult time opening a new bank account!).
• Check out the official ChexSystems website.
• Read the article about ChexSystems on Wikipedia.
