Fees to "activate" Quicken on Chase site

There was a thread recently about using the Chase website's Customer Center tab to "activate" Quicken. When I tried that, I noticed the service agreement mentions a monthly charge. Are most of you paying that fee to be able to download from Chase?

I have a credit card-only Chase account and my agreement says there is no monthly fee.

You may have a monthly fee because you have checking and/or savings accounts. Can someone with Chase banking accounts confirm or refute this?

Thanks,

Jerry

Thanks. I have checking and two credit cards (one a former FirstUSA).

You may be a new customer (or considered new). I am a former Bank One & FirstUSA customer that will be migrated over to Chase.com later in March.

I just called Chase's online support number (877-242-7327) to clarify. They told me only new customers will be charged a fee. Existing customers that are not currently paying a fee for direct connect will be grandfathered in during their migration over to CHASE.COM and will not be billed a fee for direct connect. There is no fee for Bill pay via Quicken direct connect.

And here I was thinking of moving everything to

(I still may end up doing that if things go any rougher than they have for me at BankOne).

This may sound rather cavalier, but would (and did) find another bank. My wife and I have had a joint checking account with First Tennessee for several years and there have never been any fees to use Quicken with it. Last year she decided to open a checking account for herself with Regions. When we went to hook up Quicken, we found there was a sign-up fee, a monthly maintenance fee, and a per-transaction bill-pay fee. If you wanted "free" "online banking", you had to use their web interface. We closed the account and she opened up a second checking account under her name at First TN.
