Hello myFICO family!
I have had the Free Everyday Checking from NFCU for nearly 5 years.
While speaking to one of NFCU's amazing CSRs today about an unrelated matter, she noticed I have a VA disability direct deposit which qualifies for a Free ACTIVE DUTY checking account (I have not been active duty since the 70's ☺).
This account provides access to your deposit a day earlier, a refund of any out of network ATM fees ($20 a billing period max) and a slightly higher dividend rate. My account number and debit card remained the same after she made the switch.
I thought perhaps someone else receiving disability benefits might not be aware of their eligibility for this account like myself.
Thanks for sharing, @800wannabe420!
Wow, I've been with them since 1999, and I've been receiving my disability compensation since 2019. Had no idea I still qualified for the Active Duty account. Will give them a call first thing Monday morning. Much for the info.

You're very welcome!
I thought I might not be the only person that was unaware of this...
