Finances as a 4 degree

Once you get the hang of the scanner, it's quick, simple and easy. You'll wonder why "everyone" doesn't do it like that.

i dont have USAA, so someone else can be specific, but i can make an educated guess based on my friends who have usaa

they only do banking online. you'd have to scan the check (with a regular household scanner) onto your computer, and that's how you can deposit the money. you can't do business at the Armed Forces Bank on base w/ USAA. you could, however, do as you said and put it into your AFB account, then transfer it to your USAA account. lots of transfers, though, when you could just find a scanner and scan it directly to your USAA account

I switched my directpay to USAA from my AFB account, very easy to do online. Scanning checks has been great. Like I said, the only drawback is depositing large cash amounts. You can mail money orders to them and that works, but if you want to make a significant cash deposit, you need to use a local bank.

so would you say USAA is better than AFB?
