Unfortunately, to open any bank account anywhere… you need to have something in the account. banks REALLY dont like it when you have an account with nothing in it.
May i suggest, gettin a jar… taking your first check or two and putting half in the jar. I think BBandT only requires $50 to open an account.
I think You cannot open a bank account with zero dollars. You must put something in it – the minimum depends on the bank.
Look into an account at the Virginia Credit Union. You need to maintain a minimum of $5 in your accounts. To earn interest, you must have at least $100.
The Virginia Credit Union may have fewer locations, but since they are a credit union they will work with you more and, down the road, they offer guaranteed loans with fixed rates. They offered me the best rate on a car loan and they also split the automatic withdrawal into two monthly half payments.
Good luck!
