"1st HNFM B Free Whoa! Stop! Hold your horses! Free Checking? Didn't we all learn as youngsters that if something sounds a little fishy—or maybe even a little too good to be true—it usually is. What they “forgot” to tell you in the headlines is that their rates for ser vices like overdraft protection, stop payments, wire transfers, ATM usage, etc., etc., are just about the highest around. Some “free” account! Well, what did you expect from big out-of-town banks? It's probably a good bet that most of their decision makers couldn't spell Heppner or Condon, let alone find us on a map. If you're tired of fine print and all the other big-city shenanigans, start a checking or savings program at Bank of Eastern Oregon.
