Besides, up to two monthly rebates are offered for ATM withdrawal fees charged by other lenders.

The service charge has been lowered to $19 from $26 per month.

To get a complete waiver on the fees, users have to set up a qualifying monthly direct deposit of at least $4,000.

BBVA Compass executive director of consumer segments and deposit products David Bolocan said: “We focussed on the benefits we believe are most valuable to our customers, and then set some simple rules for avoiding the monthly Service Charge.

“With some other banks’ accounts, the requirements are so convoluted, it’s almost impossible for a customer to tell if they will incur a fee or not. We wanted to change that.”
