How To Bank on the Memorial Day Holiday
Due to Memorial Day’s status as a federally recognized holiday, odds are that you won’t be able to stop in at your local bank branch on May 25. That doesn’t mean you don’t have access to your money, though. You can visit an ATM to withdraw or deposit money, or you can use online banking services to set up bill payments, check your account balances and transfer funds between your accounts. It’s also possible to use a money transfer app or service like Zelle provided by your bank to send money to other people.
Check with your bank or credit union to find out which services — including internet, mobile and telephone banking — are available on bank holidays. You also may be able to apply for a loan or credit card if your bank offers an online application. Then plan ahead so you can avoid any stress caused by not having access to your local branch or by reaching your daily ATM withdrawal limit.
