CommonWealth One Federal Credit Union offers customers four great free checking options in spite of the changing economic of increasing fees for banking convenience.
- Washington, DC-MD-VA-WV (1888PressRelease) July 09, 2011 - At CommonWealth One, free checking is not a thing of the past. According to the NCUA, credit union membership has grown by over 300,000 members nationally during the first quarter of this year, which may be attributed to the changing economic trends among banks to increase fees to consumers in order to stay profitable. However, credit unions remain true to the cooperative philosophy that started the movement a century ago…lower fees, excellent service and higher rates of return for their members.
CommonWealth One has four great options to choose from in regards to free checking: Free Checking, Anytime Checking, Relationship Checking and Relationship PLUS Checking. Their Free and Anytime Checking accounts have no fees or minimum balance requirements. In addition to no fees, members can earn rewards and dividends with Relationship and Relationship PLUS Checking. Relationship PLUS Checking account holders also have personal bankers assigned to them for even greater convenience.
Each checking account at CommonWealth One Federal Credit Union also offers free online banking access via Online Branch, e-statements and online bill pay, as well as access to thousands of ATMs nationally through a surcharge-free ATM network. And members can take advantage of their banking on-the-go with mobile and text banking.

They also offer auto loan rates as low as 2.99% APR on 2006 or newer cars up to 72 months.
