Question 2

At what age you can open a bank account?

Answer

The generally accepted age for opening a bank account would be 18 years old. If you need to open it earlier, there is an option of creating a joint account with your parents or with other legally responsible people, such as guardians. But in this case, the other half of the card owners can see your transactions and also use the card. Some minors might not like it, but there is no other choice. A loophole would be for those who are legally emancipated from their parents. Only this category of teenagers can get a bank account.

Question 3

How many banks can you have accounts with?

There is no existing limit for you in the number of banks, as well as in the number of bank accounts. You can have as many as you wish or need.

The general number would be 4, where one pair is for general spendings, such as bills and everyday purchases, and another one is for savings. You’ll need a separate account for emergency conservations and for other means, such as investing or college funds.

Question 4

How much money can you have in a bank account?

Answer

There is no limit on the amount of money kept when it comes to a usual bank account. But you should notice that the insurance amount is only 250 thousand dollars, and keeping more than that on one account can be dangerous. In case when huge sums of money are needed to be kept, consider creating multiple bank accounts. There are no restrictions on the number of accounts or banks in which you can create them. If we are talking about a savings account, look for the one with the biggest interest for you.

To open an account in some bank online, you are supposed to perform several steps. Firstly, choose the bank and download its application on your smartphone. Secondly, go into the app and look for the button that will have a meaning similar to "create a bank account." Thirdly, you are expected to make a choice considering the account type you have an interest in. Then, you can fill in the empty spaces with the personal information needed for the identification. The last step is to deposit a certain sum of money on the newly created account (this is an official requirement for some of the banks).

Question 6

What can someone do with your bank account number?

Answer

Nowadays, most people are giving their bank account numbers in many instances, and many of them are afraid of the possibility of misusing this information with malicious intent. However, in fact, there is almost nothing to be afraid of because even the most experienced fraud can do nothing to your money, having only your bank account number. Nevertheless, you have to be prudent anyway because if someone gets your bank account number alongside other personal information, the possibility of becoming a victim of fraud will increase.

Question 7

How do i add someone to my bank account?

Answer

This additional person is called a "secondary signer." Unlike with the joint accounts, this type of deal is not equitable. In the first case, there are two owners of a card, and they are both responsible for it. In the second case, an added person can do everything as the owner, but he’s not legally accountable. If the cardholder wants to withdraw the second user from his card, he can do it without any permission or reason. In any way, there are situations when you might need a secondary signer. The best choice would be to add a relative, a spouse, or the closest friend. After choosing a person, you both would need to go to the bank and sign some forms. And, of course, your personal documents will be needed. Look for this information on the website of the bank or call them up.

Question 8

How to find bank accounts in your name?

Answer

Nowadays, this is a frequent case when a person has several accounts ascribed to one name - different accounts might serve different purposes, and this is a smart and convenient solution. However, this situation might lead to the fraudsters trying to create accounts in your name or getting access to your already existing accounts. That is why it is useful to know how many and of which type you do have accounts in the banks. To find it out, you should pay attention to your credit report. A credit report is a sort of summary of the account-related information connected with a certain name. Thus, if you are interested in finding out which accounts are attached to your name, a credit report is the first thing you have to check.

Question 9

How to send money to someone without a bank account?

Answer

Transferring money is possible nowadays even without bank accounts because there is still a massive group of people who do not have them. You can choose traditional ways of sending money through the post office using money orders. The fee for such transfers is smaller than 2$, and this way is much safer than sending cash. Also, several online platforms allow you to transfer money. However, you need to have a debit or credit card for some of them.

Question 10

How to find a bank by account number?

Answer

If you are trying to answer the question of how you can find the bank using your account number, the answer might not satisfy you. Unfortunately, an account number is hardly useful when it comes to identifying the bank where it was opened. To find out to which bank a certain bank account belongs, you should rather use a routing number. A routing number is the raw of digits, usually placed right before the account number. It helps to find out where the bank is located and to which financial institution the account belongs. Not to confuse these two types of numbers, you can use the following hint: check which number is a couple of digits longer. The shorter one is the one you are interested in.

Question 11

What is a bank account statement?

Answer

A bank statement is the list of all the transactions that the owner did for the previous month. It includes all operations made and also your balance at the beginning of the month and at its end. You can access your statement online on the website of your bank. Log in, find the page with electronic statements, choose the period and look at it on any of your devices, or download it as a PDF file.

Question 12

How to transfer money from a credit card to bank account?

Answer

If you want to transfer money from a credit card to a bank account, think about it several times. Unfortunately, these cards are mainly intended for paying for various services. When transferring money from a credit card, the bank may charge interest, which will affect your financial situation. However, if you still decide to transfer payment, do the following. Download the online application, enter all data, and select the card for debiting funds. You need to specify the exact sum of the transfer and the recipient's account.
