NY ABA # 021300077

$25 fee for closing account before 180 days
$25 monthly fee on most accounts waived for first 3 months (or with minimum balances).

People who have opened accts with Key in past report a soft EQ credit pull

Some people have reported not receiving their promised bonuses for past key bank acct opening promotions.

Yeah, either the $125 for the Key Express Free Personal Checking account or the $225 for the free business checking account have no monthly fees or minimum balance requirements.

So, opening a business checking account as a sole proprietor with SSN as tax ID is acceptable?

No hard pull for me when opening account for GPS deal back in early Aug. They did a soft EQ inquiry.

So, it appears the answer is "yes". $250 minimum opening deposit by mail (or another key bank account) required.

Correct for the personal accounts, although for the business accounts it says "Offer available to businesses without an existing checking account at KeyBank as of 10/16/09. Offer not available to businesses that have opened a KeyBank checking account in the last 12 months. Employees of KeyBank, its affiliates, and subsidiaries are not eligible for this offer. Limit one gift per qualifying account. Limit one gift per business."

Warning. Key never pays up.

Opened a biz checking for a multi-function printer and never received it. Opened a personal checking for a GPS and never received it. Spoke with the branch manager(s) numerous times and they were always "working on it" or "the system says it shipped".

Don't expect to get your bonus.

Both my girlfriend and I got our GPS units well within the timeframe indicated in the offer (maybe 2-3 weeks after meeting the requiremetns). I plan on opening a business account now for the $275.

Key has always paid. The last time (ipod promo I believe), they ran out of it. I followed up and pursued it with a few emails and was eventually shipped the ipod.
