I had my own savings account (not co-signed) at 15. I had my own checking account at 17. In Hawaii, at least, you don't need to be 18 to have one, apparently.
Or it could just be that the person who signed me up was a moron, like the person who got me my cell phone was (I was 17 and you're definitely NOT allowed to enter into a cellular contract as a minor).

I had my own, non-co-signed, savings & checking accounts at 13 or 14 in Alberta, and that was back in the early 80s. It wasn't hard to get. Oh, and then, when I moved to the Big City, I got another set of checking and savings account, also non-co-signed, when I was 16. It was ridiculously easy.
Have things changed since then?
