FAQ

Who is Huntington?

Huntington is a financial services company with a rich history that dates back to 1866. Founded in Columbus, Ohio by P.W. Huntington, the company has grown to meet the needs of individuals and families across six states. We were the first existing commercial bank to offer a state-of-the-art Internet banking service in June of 1996. What does that mean for you? Well, we have over 700 banking offices and over 1,400 ATMs in the Midwest, and we have recently expanded our business to include customers preferring self-service through the Web in exchange for higher savings rates.

Is this banking safe?

Absolutely. In fact we go to extra lengths to protect you. We also provide a double layer of verification security when you log in to your account. And we stand behind all of our electronic transactions. If someone were to fraudulently use your account, we protect you. We call it the Huntington Online Guarantee.

Why are your rates so great?

Simply put, it's due to reduced processing costs. Since this product is only available online, we pass on higher interest rates to our high yield savings account customers.

How can I access my money when I need it?

We help you establish electronic linkages to your existing checking, savings, or money market accounts. Using Online Banking, you can then move money in or out of your Huntington account. Of course, you can also use any of our 1400+ ATMs to make withdrawals.

What's the catch?

There isn't one. Again, just follow these simple steps:

  1. Apply, open, and self-service your savings account through the Internet.
  2. Fund your account electronically from an existing checking, savings, or money market account.
  3. Agree to a 5 business day hold on deposits to your account. Deposits will begin to earn interest as soon as they arrive in your account but can't be transferred for 5 business days. As with most savings accounts, electronic withdrawals are limited to 6 transactions per month.

What are Trial Deposits?

To move money into your new Huntington account, we make a secure electronic link to the bank funding your account. This link is created through trial deposits. We deposit small amounts of money into your funding account within 1 to 3 business days of receiving your completed application.

We'll walk you through this during your application process and in an email message.
