Yes, BMO Harris Bank does use ChexSystems as part of its account opening process. ChexSystems is a consumer reporting agency that tracks banking activities and can provide information on an individual's banking history, including any negative records. If you have a problematic banking history, it could impact your ability to open an account with them.
yes Bank of America does use chexsystems as well as Early Warning Systems. However at this time they are approving many people on chexsystems. Almost anyone that applies online for an account.

Answer Most banks that use chexsystems will not allow you to open an a savings or a checking account if you have been reported. There are more credit unions that allow those reported to chexsystems to open a savings if you are eligible for membership even if your chexsystems report is stopping you from having a checking with them.There are some Nationwide banks like ING Direct that will allow anyone to open a savings account. They do not use chexsystems at all. Of course ING requires a person to link to an existing checking account. Chances are a person on ChexSystems doesn't have any kind of bank account nor can they get one. So pursuing opening an account with ING is not possible.Paying the debt owed to the reporting bank will NOT remove you from chexsystems. Many times paying off a debt that is owed to the reporting bank(s) can cause you to be reported even longer. The bank or credit union is allowed to report you 5 years from the last date that the account was paid on/or paid off.AnswerEventually it will just be easier to pay off the bank that put you on chexsystems in the first place. Often people get into trouble with overdraft fees, particularly before the 2010 laws, but they still owe the money, and there is really no way out without settling up with that bank.
Opening A Savings AccountGenerally if a bank uses chexsystems, they will use it to open a savings as well. Sometimes a credit union will open a savings account if you are on chexsystems as long as you are eligible for a membership even if they will not open a checking. Some banks and credit unions do not verify savings accounts through chexsystems so it really depends on the bank or credit union .Right now ING direct is an excellent place if you are looking for a savings ONLY. They will not run chexsystems.related question for more helpAre_there_any_banks_that_do_not_use_Telecheck_or_Chexsystems
You can determine if a bank uses the ChexSystems by checking their website for information about account approvals and screening processes, as many banks will disclose their use of ChexSystems in their account terms. Additionally, you can inquire directly with the bank’s customer service. If you have a negative report in ChexSystems, some banks may specifically inform you about their policies regarding it during the application process. Lastly, you can review your own ChexSystems report to see if the bank has accessed it.
Most credit unions will allow anyone that is eligible for membership to open an account. It depends on what they use to verify a checking account when opened as to if they will allow you to open a checking. Some use a credit report and some use chexsystems, ews or telecheck
