I just needed a simple checking account which I opened at Citibank. The people at the branch were helpful. It's the account I use mostly for ATM withdrawals. It can be linked to an online only savings account which pays high interest.

Citibank has been great to me thus far. I was only looking for a very simple account without any complications. The monthly fee is low enough that i do not complain. I wish there were more ATM locations as the fee can be annoying.
