You live in the worst housing ever if you can't pay rent with cash. They are ****tards for only accepting check or MO. What, they think the cash isn't going to be real or something? Shit, it's not hard to check for counterfeits, and if they do come across one, they had to get the cash somehow, either from mail or in person, so they know who the **** passed it.

Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this way, but oh well.....

or... it is a measure of protection for both the renter and the landlord. with cash, unless they give you a receipt, there is no proof of payment. with a check or money order, there is a trail that can be used to prove who has/hasnt payed rent.

BOA has been very good to me...*shrug*

On another note, my friend just switched from WAMU to Fargo...all you guys who thing WAMU is amazing, there was a little news story that many did not catch.

Don't quote me on this, but apparently WAMU is in the hole for BILLIONS with all the foreclosures that have been occurring lately...they made some really shitty investments with a ton of untrustworthy individuals...more so than any other bank...

Good luck //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

What kind of *** only has 3 cents in a bank account?

I use BoA...never a maintence fee, never a penalty of any kind.

Plus, they let me look at my portfolio when all the sites (like e*trade) where my stocks are held are NWS.

i dont know man.

i have lived in 3 different complexes in 3 different cities ( in San Bernardino county). and when i was young and lived with my mother, we also lived in 3 different complexes in 2 different cities (in San Diego county)

both of us have had to use MO's and Checks always...one place allowed credit cards but no cash.

i have not gotten a reciet for payment in any of my 3 apartment complexes that ive lived in.

one was section 8 (although i was one of the only ones who wasnt on section 8 lol) but the other 2 were in richy areas. we're talking 1200 a month for a 1 bed/1 bathroom apt, so its not like they were all ran by some slum landlord.

see I had BoA before too. And I got charged a maintanence fee. I put $100 in to open the account because I thought I was going to use it for my direct deposit in the army. a few months later it was not $100 anymore.

jmn, there probly is something that says if you dont have a certain amount theyll charge you, do you have a free checking account? Cuz I know mine wasnt when I got it, and thats why it cost.

Wachovia is worse than BoA IMO though. they are just ****ign dumb.

I have NEVER had any beef with Wachovia. No ridiculous fees. No "missing" money. 100% customer satisfaction when small problems do occur, like me losing my card.

Big banks do purposefully push their small clients around though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif I think Flip posted something about this a while back.

I've yet to have any problems with Wells Fargo, but I keep more than .03 cents in my account.

direct deposit is the key to no fees at BoA.
