Online Bank Lacking Physical ATM Access for Cash and Check Deposits in Many States
Customers of online-only banks like USAA cannot make cash or physical check deposits in many states due to the absence of ATM partnerships or branch equivalents. This forces customers who receive physical checks or cash to use alternative banks for basic deposit needs. The gap undermines the proposition of online banking for customers who occasionally need physical banking services.
