Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to open a checking account?

To open an account with Osgood Bank you will be asked to provide the Customer Service Representative with:

  • A valid photo ID

  • Proof of Social Security Number

  • Proof of address if address is different from that shown on ID (utility bill or like document)

You will be required to provide basic personal information such as phone number, email address, and challenge questions for future verification.

All accounts require an initial deposit at account opening. You may transfer money from another Osgood Bank account or fund your account with a cash or check. Funding with a check from another financial institution may require a temporary hold.

If you wish to open an account with multiple owners or signers, we will require the above information for each individual. If you wish to name beneficiaries for your account, we will require their legal name, social security number, date of birth, and phone number.

All applicants will be verified through Qualifile, a nationwide specialty consumer reporting agency under the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Do you offer a discount for Seniors?

We do.

In addition to waiving the monthly maintenance fee on the Be Good Checking account for Veterans and students, we also offer a waiver for customers age 55 and older.
