I'm just letting you know that a free checking account with $1000 in it actually loses money for banks. They would be happy to close the account for you. Removing the money will not faze them at all.
Savings accounts with more than $10K, small business accounts, CDs, and commercial accounts are more valuable in that order. Banks are doing you a favor by offering you a cheap bank account.
Using only cash opens you up to theft and loss. This is a problem for immigrants who can't get bank accounts or are afraid of banks.
