Bankrate staff insights

"I've used Huntington Bank as my primary bank for over a decade and have always appreciated how easy it is to conduct my financial business through them. Huntington’s early pay feature means my direct deposit comes up two days early, which is nice to have," said a Bankrate staff member and accountholder. "Though, I’ve generally had to look elsewhere to earn a competitive interest rate on my emergency fund savings."

Disclosure: To enhance our product reviews, Bankrate employees often open accounts and provide feedback. They may have been compensated for their time and account maintenance, but this does not affect the integrity of their review.

Review methodology

With so many financial institutions to choose from, it can be hard to know who to trust. Bankrate’s ever-growing list of bank and credit union reviews is updated regularly. Our editorial team analyzes and reviews each institution across deposit products such as savings accounts, checking accounts, certificates of deposit (CDs) and money market accounts (MMAs). Banks are rated by important factors such as offered interest rates, fees, minimum balance requirements, access to funds and more.

We assign a score to each type of account and its features, weigh them carefully based on importance to account holders and determine an overall score. Read our full review methodology.

Verified Badge Icon Bankrate methodology disclosure

In July 2024, Bankrate collaborated with a third-party vendor to survey 1,200 bank account holders nationwide. Bankrate and our vendor collected and summarized account holder responses to five rating questions on a 5-point scale as well as open-ended reviews of the banking experience. Responses are based on individual account holder product details, and therefore cannot be verified for accuracy. Reviewers received an incentive for their feedback. Their ratings are unedited and have not been reviewed or approved by the associated bank or credit union, nor do these responses reflect Bankrate's own expert review of these banking products.

I like the business relationship, but I find that I often have overpayment issues,that could be prevented without the fees. Early pay, credit building and the Budget I have with them.

It's a good bank, but they need to up their APY to keep up with the online banks that have higher rates and are attracting more people to bank with them. They have a bank near where I go shopping. They are in a safe place to do banking and it's easy to use the ATM when needed.

I use the mobile browser more than I do the app. It has regularly scheduled updates so I feel my money is safe. I've only used customer service a few times. It was a convenient location at a previous workplace although now locations are too far away. They were offering free checking with direct deposit with no minimum balance. Have 24-hour Grace which actually is enough time to correct an overdraft.

Any time I have any issue or even a hiccup, the employees are always available to help no matter if it's in person, on the phone, or online. They always resolve my issue with no problem. They make sure I don't have anything else I need to do. They always make sure they're there for the customer. They aim to make your life easier in any possible way they can. Mobile check deposit was big for me as the hours I work I never would've made it to the bank on time and a lot of the days I needed my money available right away. That was also another factor. Free checking was another huge benefit for me and my needs.

I have had mystery charges on my account. took a long time to get money back and i'm the only one on my account. I never take money out of savings for anything. The start up limit and rates. But I only had my account with them for 6 months and I closed it.
