Wachovia Flooded Me With So Many Overdraft Fees I Don't Know Whether To Sink Or Swim

There's another moral. Online account balances seldom reflect the actual status of your account.

Unless you use Paypal, which for some reason are always deadly accurate. I'm not shilling for them, nor would I use them as my "bank account". But one of the reasons why I did put a large portion of my spending money there is because I had three checking accounts that never had accurate information online. Banks made quite a bit off me that year.

Pay it off, close the account, never use Wachovia again. You're already on their list, and somewhere down the line they will treat you like a sub-human again for your mistake.

This makes me happy :)

Not for the carriers and clerks that have to sort all the tipped over mail though. But just because that looks uber cool.

I suggest to you a Twitter alternative: actually living life instead of narrating it.

Oh okay, I'll throw in something like twitter, but strangely nowhere near as hatred-inducing.

Hopefully none of them will be ingesting mono-atomic gold. That stuff activates parts of your brain scientists don't know anything about, improves your vision, hearing, concentration, forces your body to expel toxins more rapidly, cures cancer, makes you glow, makes you happy, all-knowing, and god-like.

The competition would be most unwelcome.

I think it should be mentioned that Paypal, although not a bank, has at times been my top choice for holding my money. Keeping in mind the horror stories, the one thing they have which I wish banks would at least TRY to do, is give you real-time balance info. I can't tell you how many times I've over drafted because my available and ledger balances were different, and there were charges from last week that failed to show up online. I paid for my lunch with a paypal debit card, sent a text to Paypal as I walked away from the register, and they listed my just bought lunch as a debit. Real-time within 30 seconds.
