What Huntington says

These amounts are in US dollars. They come from Huntington's Asterisk-Free Checking page.

Huntington says there is no monthly maintenance fee and no minimum deposit to open. Huntington ATMs are free for transactions on this account. A non Huntington ATM is $3.50 for each transaction, plus any fee the ATM owner charges. Huntington also lists $2 for each extended statement at a Huntington ATM.

Perks Checking, Platinum Perks Checking, and SmartInvest Checking are different accounts on that page. Do not copy their extras onto Asterisk-Free Checking. A charges PDF can list more products. This guide only uses the figures on the Asterisk-Free page itself.

Find a fee on the statement

A monthly maintenance fee should not be the line you are hunting if the account is Asterisk-Free Checking. An ATM fee can still be there. Write the date, the printed name, and the amount. How to read a statement PDF separates fees from purchases.

A monthly fee of $0 for 12 months is $0. A $3.50 ATM fee is not that monthly fee. Twelve of those ATM fees would be $42, and that arithmetic is not a quote from Huntington.

What to ask Huntington

Use the phone number on the statement if it is printed there. Ask which checking account is open, and whether the line is the $3.50 non Huntington ATM fee or the $2 extended statement. Then ask Huntington to review it. They can say no.

Expenvo can list a bank fee that is already on a statement. It does not call Huntington.
