FNBO BT

DH has a pretty decent BT offer from FNBO I am wondering if I can use the BT feature online and just transfer to the checking account by just entering our bank name and account number . Does anyone know if this would go through ? They sent checks but for the life of me I can't find them .

I got them too. You can always call them and they will send you more checks in the mail. Sorry, I'm not sure about the transfer to your checking account though.

@Jnbmom  You can do a BT to CU that you have a CC with and then transfer the +balance to your Checking/Saving account internally!

I remember reading about this, different lender, same issue. It did not work. 

I think they will send you checks if you ask, and if they don't, they will keep mailing them.

I feel like I get checks from them twice per week. At least it isn't daily thing like Citi

I don't think it will go through or you'll have more issues to untangle than the BT itself with standard payees. I would try the other options as mentioned upthread by @Remedios + other members.

 

Heres a thread of someone who experienced an issue with FNBO, but no update followed on that particular thread:
