a couple years ago I deposited some checks that were mine into my personal account at BofA, but they were made payable to a business name.
I made deposited 5 to 10 checks a month for about 6 months, only 1 time did they even notice, the guy was a manager and he told me I could not deposit the checks since they were not in my name and it was a personal account. I told him it was my company name as a sole proprietor but I had not set up an LLC for it yet. He still would not let me deposit them. So I came back the next day and used another teller and had no problem. Most of the tellers did not even notice the checks were not made out to me.
Another time at my local mail boxes etc, I had 2 ARS checks in my mailbox, 1 was mine, the other was for another mailbox. (I think there are 3 or 4 people at my MBE who do adult web sites based on internext ads and other stuff in the trash). Of course I told the MBE people they put the wrong letter in my mailbox.

Know what you mean.. I also bank at BofA.. The bank can get in trouble for letting you Dep. to your personal account. Once you Dep. it to your business account you can transfer it to your savings or what ever. They should make you Dep. it to business account and then write a check to your personal account. Even with BofA depends on were you live. I have a business account and checks come made out to me were I live now, they let me Less Cash'm..(This is a NO NO) but were I moved from NO WAY had to Dep. them because it was an business account. IRS made'm do this years ago... Mingling Funds is a NO NO..
