Default Checks

I maintain three checking accounts, one for local use in Northwest Georgia/Tennessee, one for national use when traveling and major purchases and one for local use in The Villages.

Both my Georgia/Tennessee and national accounts give me free checks as a "prestige" status with checking and savings accounts at both.

However, my First Citizens account in TV charges $24.50 for 100 checks. Do I need to change my TV local bank or is there a more "prestige" status I can set up at First Citizens? I do have both a savings and a checking account at First Citizens. Maybe my balances aren't high enough there yet?

To be sure of up-to-date accurate answers to your questions, it would be best to call Citizens First directly.

Also, you don't need to order checks from a bank. If you google "Checks" you'll find many low cost options online.

I get my checks from Vista Print. Cheap, nice selection, gets to me quickly.

Ya, but they have free fresh popcorn.

They also have the monpoly on convenience, so you pay for that.

Why not get a bank that is local everywhere, like Wells Fargo
