Checking: Understanding the Fine Print
Don't you just love reading the fine print? All of the minute, legal details of terms and conditions? It's fascinating.
Nope. Nobody reads the fine print. Seemingly everything has fine print and none of it seems to make sense. But there are some important facts in there, particularly when it comes to a checking account agreement, that you want to pay attention to. Those are the things we'll cover in this course. We'll discuss minimum balance requirements, overdraft conditions, and other stipulations to be aware of.
Checking: Checking Skills
This is a how-to course on using your checking account. We'll go over making deposits and withdrawals, either in a bank or using an automatic teller machine, or ATM. We'll discuss ATM safety and what you need to be aware of when using an ATM. We'll go over making purchases and how to use your debit card. We'll also cover the components of a check and how to properly fill one out. Lastly, we'll touch on keeping a check register and managing your accounts electronically to monitor your budget.
Checking: Online and Mobile Banking
Online and mobile banking tools offer customers convenience and flexibility in common, day-to-day transactions. In this program, we'll talk through the different tools offered and how you can use them to your advantage. These include alert services, electronic statements, and budgeting software. We'll also discuss the associated risks with these tools and how you can keep your information secure.
Checking: Selecting the Right Checking Account
In this course, we'll go over different types of checking accounts so you can discern which type might be most appropriate for your life. These include basic and joint accounts, commercial/business accounts, and online versus brick and mortar bank accounts. The key to finding the right checking account for you is to do your research and shop around. Using this video, along with reading the fine print and talking to customer service associates, will help you make an informed decision about where to put your money.
