Just joined online and it was a SP for me as well.  Did not opt for the offered checking and have not applied for any credit products.  Checked EQ to verify.


Confirming this as well; still waiting to see if they lodged a HP for the Shared secured loan I opened with them, but opening the account online was a SP on EQ as verified by annualcreditreport pull:

Please update your final  results as I am considering doing the same Smiley Happy ... DCU rejected my application last year and I am considering joining Alliant now but if possible would  like to avoid the HP.  Might also consider  this type of  loan to add an installment loan on my report for the sake of the credit  mix.

I know i am not rev but i opened an alliant account last year, and it wasn't an hp to open account. Its an HP for opening checking or any kind of loan type accounts, including credit cards.

@ mong

thanks for this info. I will wait until some of my inq will fall off in December and then apply....just in case it should be a HP. Alliant is not running away Smiley Happy  Whenever I add a Barclaycard I will behave for about 6 months .

I like alliant so far, haven't had any issues. I opened checking with them to get interest on my checking account wasn't getting that before. I know its an measly .6% but that was an lot better than the 0% i was getting with WF .

i would take an look at their checking account as well i know it will take an HP , but you get an fairly good interest checking account if you do DD . .6% is pretty decent compared to brick and mortar banks that offer .03-.05% in their savings....
