Texas Trust Credit Union Has the Cure for F.E.E. Syndrome

Nov. 3, 2011 - PRLog -- Too many North Texans are suffering from F.E.E. Syndrome associated with their banking choices, and Texas Trust Credit Union is writing prescriptions for the cure.

F.E.E. Syndrome is Texas Trust’s term for the weariness consumers feel in the face of the irritating and ever-growing number of fees that their financial institutions are imposing or increasing. F.E.E. stands for Feeling the Effects of the Economy, and the prescription is simple: change where you bank.

Texas Trust is enticing consumers to leave F.E.E. Syndrome behind by offering a one-dose treatment of $155 when they open a Free & Flexible checking account. As the credit union’s most popular account, it is free of minimum balance requirements and provides free online bill paying, a free MasterCard debit card, free home banking – including home deposits -- free Texas Trust ATM transactions, free eStatements, free 24/7 member service, and a free box of checks when the account is opened.

Free & Flexible account holders also earn more free benefits through Texas Trust’s relationship services. The more services they use, the more benefits they receive.

“Banking shouldn’t include surprises that give you heartburn, headaches, or a pain in the neck,” says Jim Minge, president of Texas Trust Credit Union. “At Texas Trust, there are no surprises. Anyone suffering from F.E.E. Syndrome should see us for the cure.”

The $155 F.E.E. Syndrome offer is available through the end of this year at any of Texas Trust’s eight branches.
