 Bank of America: 1: because it is the cheapest to open a checking account and offers the opportunity in both accounts to earn the best interest.  Flagstar Bank: 2: because it does not charge high monthly fees and is also cheap to open, but does not offer opportunity for interest.  Comerica: 3: because it is much more expensive to open up and has higher fees.
