Virginia is one of the best-supplied states on the Bank On roster: 46 certified checking accounts, ranking it #8 of the 51 states and territories we track and putting it well above the national median of 32. 18 come from local or regional institutions and 28 from national banks — a 39% local share, close to the 36% median across the states we track.
30 of the 46 carry a $0 monthly maintenance fee; the 16 that do charge run from $2 to $12 a month. 34 can be opened with $0 on deposit, and the largest opening deposit asked anywhere on this list is $25. 44 run no overdraft program at all; the other 2 still cannot charge overdraft or NSF fees on the certified account itself and offer coverage only as a separate service you would have to opt into.
Of the 18 state-based listings, the most come from Primis Bank Primis, American Bank of Oklahoma and Atlantic Union Bank.
