In our continued coverage of how online banking shapes up at different banks, we here at Peak Personal Finance went over to have a look at Capital One online banking.  Here’s what we found.

Your accounts are all listed on your home screen and you can go to them individually, broaden their descriptions to show the last couple of transactions for each (from that same screen) and do a few other nice little personalizations to your account view screen.  This is something that sets CapitalOne online banking apart from others, for sure.

As with most online banking services, Capital One banking online allows you to transfer between accounts, view voided checks, and receive alerts when new account transactions take place.  There is an online bill pay option that allows you to not only pay your bills through Capitalone banking online, but also set up automatic payments and receive receipts for them.

Full account histories are available, unlike with some online services, so your Capital One online banking service allows you to print out all of the background on your checking account, for instance, if you need.

Something unique to Capital One banking online is the ability to transfer money from Capital One to any other bank.  That’s very rarely offered in online banking today and very handy to have access to.  A big bonus to Capitalone banking online right there.

If you’re a Capital One customer, it’s definitely worth getting into Capital One online banking and trying it for yourself.
