Capital One 360 Checking

ChexSystems: may check

Capital One's account terms say it may pull consumer reports when you apply. Those can include banking-history reports like ChexSystems.

Capital One's 360 Checking disclosures say it may request a consumer (credit) report in connection with your account, and later reports for account-related purposes. It may also report account information to consumer reporting agencies and check verification systems, which could affect your ability to open accounts in the future. ChexSystems isn't named.1

What it is

A no-monthly-fee, no-minimum online checking account that you can open from anywhere in the 50 states or D.C. Overdrafts are declined by default, and there's an optional No-Fee Overdraft feature once you've made regular deposits. It includes a free first checkbook. Capital One says it may pull a consumer report and doesn't market the account to people with past banking problems.1,3

Overdraft
By default (Auto-Decline), transactions that would overdraw the account are generally declined. You can opt into a free automatic transfer from a linked Capital One savings or money market account, or into No-Fee Overdraft, which lets approved transactions take you below $0 with no fee once you've deposited at least $250 in 2 of the previous 3 calendar months (new accounts wait until the third month). A negative balance must be repaid, and one lasting 56 consecutive days leads to account closure.
ATMs
No Capital One fee at Capital One, MoneyPass and Allpoint ATMs (70,000+); other ATM owners may charge their own fees.
Early direct deposit
Yes

Who can open it

Opened online by U.S. citizens or permanent residents 18 and older with a physical address in one of the 50 states or D.C. (or a military APO/FPO address), a U.S. mobile number and an SSN or ITIN. Accounts must be funded within 60 days of approval.

  • By law, you can get a free copy of your checking account report once every 12 months, and you are also entitled to a free copy if a bank turns you down because of it.6,7
