Most bank report to a company call Chex Systems. They are a credit bureau that are used for reporting on deposit accounts at banks instead of loans. If the bank you owe money to reports to chex systems and the bank you wish to open an account at uses chex systems more then likely you will need to pay the other account off first. That doesn't mean that you can't find a bank that will open an account for you it will just be difficult to do. The best thing would be to just pay the bank what you owe money to. Most banks aren't going to open an account with an outstanding amount owed to another bank because they don't want you to do the same thing to them.

Having an outstanding balance with a bank doesn't prevent you from opening a checking account with another bank. However, it's important to address any outstanding balances to avoid being reported to ChexSystems, a consumer reporting agency that banks use to assess risk. You could have limited options for checking accounts if you have a history of overdrafts or unpaid fees reported by ChexSystems.

What is an advantage of a saving account over a cheking account?

One advantage that I can think of is the fact that Savings Accounts usually offer an interest on the money held in the account whereas Checking accounts offer very little or on most cases zero interest on the money held in the account. On the flip side, there are limitations on the number of transactions you can make on your account in case of Savings accounts whereas there are no such limitations for a checking account.
