I have Navy Fed too and I was able to find a work around. I print my echecks on actual checks. The one you can purchase at Office max. They are not expense. They are like $25 for 500 checks. This seems to work for them. ---

Good idea. I’ve had the same issue with NFCU depositing e-checks via phone. In the branch, I noticed they were having issues as well, but they would still accept it. I’ll try printing on actual check paper. ---

It’s been awhile since I’ve been to the actual branch but I was told from a bankrupt that the tellers are no longer accepting it either. I don’t want to waste my time driving to the bank for them to tell me no so I tested out the workaround first. I have noticed though that they will take a bit longer to be approved, maybe they’re like really looking at it but it does get approved. I have yet to get a check rejected. ---

Good deal. I am going to look for a check pack of checks to test it out on. ---

Did they work? I was just told the other day that NFCU doesn’t take e-checks in any form. Some companies do not use any other pay method. I was told by the signing service that they would have to cancel all my assignments if I couldn’t accept e-checks. ---

The branch stopped taking them as well. ---

I haven’t had success with them at NFCU. So what I do is deposit them via mobile at USAA and then transfer the funds over to NFCU. ---

I’ve heard that you can open a NFCU account if you are non-military. Is this true? Regarding the e-check issue - Would you encounter the same problems with GNW or is it mostly with signing work? ---

Yes, Tricia NFCU has opened more non-military memberships. Check out their website. [https://www.navyfederal.org](https://www.navyfederal.org) NFCU are not accepting any printed e-checks. Th type of work performed doesn’t matter.
