[Cynnabar] Fwd: Organizational Checking

[Randy Asplund]

Vincent,

No problem. It must have gotten lost in the shuffle. Here's a copy of  
what I sent you on June 29. I'm forwarding it to the whole list so  
they have time to consider it.

One correction, the date I was given on the decision about the merger  
was inaccurate and the merger is already in progress. This greatly  
expands availability of local branches.

>
> OPTION #!:
> Organizational Checking Account $500 minimum balance OR $5 mo. if  
> we slip below that. You get 50 free "items" and each additional  
> item is 25¢ after that 50. An item is each check or deposit,  
> however if we deposit multiple checks or withdraw through an ATM  
> the whole transaction is counted as only one item. yes, we can set  
> up with multiple signatores. I do not believe there is any other  
> fee. Forgot to ask if they charge for first checks, but the box of  
> refills is cheap. The account gets a debit card (no access fee).
>
> OPTION #2:
> Personal account. No fees or minimums. They can make a note on the  
> account that we have a DBA for the account, meaning we can call it  
> Barony of Cynnabar, and it does what we need. Otherwise it acts  
> exactly as a normal personal checking account. No fees for any  
> transactions.  We can have multiple people on the account.
>
> Midwest Financial Credit Union (formerly Hospital and Health  
> Services Credit Union) is likely to merge with DFCU (formerly  
> Dearborn federal Credit Union). Members vote in August. This would  
> greatly expand their local branches.
>
> I asked about the ability to have an officer of our group who lives  
> a great distance away access the account and was told that such a  
> person (for example the Kingdom Exchequer) need only be on the  
> account and go to a credit union of their choice, give the name of  
> MWFCU and the account number with their ID. we get free statements,  
> no maintenance fees, and free debit cards. Plus, unlike TCF, this  
> bank is reliable and member oriented.
>
> Following option #2 seems fine if the primary on the shared  
> personal account can be changed or re-designated. She had no  
> problem with an organization setting up a personal account, and  
> actually gave me that info first.
>
> She also sent info on business accounts. See attachments.
