Survey: Americans stick with their primary checking account for years
Americans tend to stay with the same financial institution over time, according to a new Bankrate survey of 2,339 adults with a checking account. Additionally, respondents whose household income has been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic are paying more than four times more per month in fees than those who say their household income has not taken a hit.
The average account holder has been with the same bank or credit union for 14 years, the survey found. The survey also found that respondents that have been hurt financially by the coronavirus pandemic are paying more in monthly fees than those who say their income hasn't been impacted. For those in households that have suffered a setback in income during the pandemic, the monthly average for checking account costs is over $11. Conversely, those who say their household income has not been negatively impacted by the pandemic report paying an average of less than $3 per month.
'Those whose personal finances have been adversely affected by the pandemic have been hit with a double whammy of higher banking fees,' says Mark Hamrick, Bankrate senior economic analyst. 'Unemployment or loss of income can be devastating, but one should try to avoid adding financial insult to injury by paying too much in banking fees when so many less expensive options abound.'
Be sure to shop around and compare financial institutions to ensure you're getting access to competitive products and helpful features, and also not wasting money on fees. Among the banks and credit unions highlighted here, you can find institutions offering free checking, high-yield deposit products, free ATM access and much more.

Methodology for Bankrate’s best banks and credit unions of 2021
Bankrate gathered checking account, savings account, money market account and CD data from dozens of brick-and-mortar banks, credit unions and online financial institutions. In doing so, we examined thousands of data points, looking at the fees each institution charges and the deposit rates it offers. Big banks generally had more than 500 branches across multiple states and regions. Regional banks generally had fewer than 500 branches located in one state or region. Online banks were those without branches or operating as digital financial institutions whose products are widely available online. Credit unions were membership-based organizations regulated by the National Credit Union Administration. The editorial team used its judgment in cases where there wasn't a clear delineation between categories. The research team gathered data from Sept. 11-Oct. 14, 2020, and then gathered APY data a second time from Dec. 7-10, 2020.
We chose one checking account, savings account, money market account and CD from each institution. If an institution didn't offer a given product, it was not scored. However, our methodology did account for the number of products available in the final rating. When an institution offered more than one checking account, we chose the one that offered free checking or the fewest barriers to avoid a monthly fee. In cases where an institution offered multiple free checking accounts, we chose the one that paid the highest APY. If it offered more than one savings account and/or money market account, we chose the one that offered the highest APY at the lowest monthly fee, with a minimum deposit of $25,000 or less. We chose the institution's best CD offer that had a term length between seven and 17 months, when the minimum deposit was $25,000 or less.
We assigned a score to each product category, looking at criteria including fees, APYs, minimum deposit requirements, minimum balance requirements, available CD terms, ATM access, mobile features and more. After scoring each product, we divided the total score by the number of products offered to reach the bank's final score. Each product was given a different weighting in the methodology. In the event of a tie, the financial institution with the higher APY on its savings account at the time of Bankrate's latest round of APY data collection (Dec. 7-10, 2020) received the higher ranking.
