What is ChexSystems?
ChexSystems, a credit reporting agency, keeps a database of people who have a bad track record with one or more banks. Banks use ChexSystems to review your banking history.


Are you on ChexSystems?
If you have a negative listing in the ChexSystems database, it can be very difficult to open a new account — checking, savings, or other account — often taking as long as 5 years.

Quick Tip: Our staff recommends the PassChecking.com service which provides a comprehensive service related to understanding and getting off ChexSystems and into a new checking account.
