    Fuck Banks

    Man, it is fucking useless trying to use a bank as a middleman for liquid funds.

    I deposit thousands, then 6 DAYS LATER try to spend the thousands but get denied because they have up to 6 BUSINESS days to clear the funds. FUCKERS.

    What kind of bullshit is that?


    "Out of state checks"
    BULLSHIT.

    These are the same checks that I deposit all the time and have NEVER bounced. EVER.

    So let me get this straight... if I happened to be IN arizona for example (ccbill) then I can have the funds right away. RIiiiiight.

    Because proximity has SO FUCKING MUCH to do with banking these days.

              Exactly... Mother fuckers...

              Its been much longer than 6 days, but with holidays and weekends it gets stretched out.

              Maybe if the FUCKERS would work past 2pm they could get a FUCKING CHECK CLEARED.

                  THANKS FOR NOTHING ASS WIPES. What the hell?
                  Oh, so $400 of my out of state money is perfectly okay to clear but the rest is not??????

                          Good to hear.

                          As an individual I have unbelievably good credit, but my company 1)has never borrowed any money and therefore has no repayment history
                          2)has never even taken out a credit card because I've always done wire transfers or debit cards or checks

                          So the high cash flow adult biz has effectively put this company in a never-had-credit situation... Hmmmmph.

                          Its doing high volume, but compared to a "real" mainstream corporation its relatively low, so I don't know what kind of breaks I can get. Its worth asking...

                          I guess its true: "Cash is King" but out of state checks into a bank is not king until 6 business days later.

                              The longer banks hold checks and wires, the more interest they collect that doesn't go to any customer. They're in the business of cash, bankers have been the greediest bastards on the planet since the Rothschilds started inbreeding. Don't expect them to do shit for you unless your balance is 8 figures. Once you have a balance banks are great to you though.

                                  Unfortunately 8 figures ain't gonna happen anytime soon, and I'd be a fool to keep 8 figures in one bank account...

                                      I didn't mean one account, I meant 8 figures with one bank. That could include several accounts and investments, banks have high end financial planners for larger clients.

                                              My bank does pretty good by me. In the early days (1996) they would hold a check here and there, but that stopped within a month or so. Haven't had a check held since then.

                                                  Right now banks present the accual check to the other bank, meaning if I send you a check your bank will send that check bank to my bank to clear, that can take many days or even more.

                                                  The good news is their is a brand new system being built, if it works out some banks will be able to clear funds SAME DAY!

                                                      It took me a couple of switches, but I've found a bank that treats me well... I'm in Australia and they'll convert my USD cheques (ie 'foreign') on the spot. No funds withholding at all, or any conditions such as minimum balance. The only cheque that has ever bounced is the rubber globill one, and that hasn't affected my standing with them. (phew)

                                                      The strange thing is that an Australian cheque will still take 3 days to clear, while I get paid on the spot for international ones... they even ask if I would like cash!

                                                          After the announcement of a legal "dispute" I had about 3 years ago, the branch manager at my bank took it upon herself to put a 20 day hold on all my US cheques. The strange thing was, the dispute involved one of my clients from Canada, not the US. My US income was a separate part of my business from the work I did for this Canadian client.

                                                          So I had my lawyer phone her up and have a little chat with her. Since the track record on those US cheques was always 100%, with no NSF's or anything, it was unfair to punish me, especially in light of the fact that the legal issue hadn't even been resolved much less decided. In effect, the bank bitch had me guilty until proven innocent.

                                                          2 days after that phone call I visited the bank to make a deposit and she called me over to tell me the "hold" had been lifted. I told HER that when my mortgage is up for renewal I will be moving all my banking elsewhere. I'm happy to report that as of Dec. 19th 2003 all of my finances and banking are being handled by another bank. Oh, and those legal "dispute" charges were withdrawn 2 years after they were brought.



                                                          If your bank is putting an arbitrary hold on your funds for no good reason, then it's time to go talking to other banks who will be all too happy to receive your business.

Anyone who tells you otherwise just bring that up, a manager will usually cut you a break. Those are just stupid bank policies so they can earn money off your cash being held in their vaults. Out of country checks do take longer, though.

Society has always been this way. So dont get mad when the bank makes you follow their rules.

                                                                                                          I deposit thousands, then 6 DAYS LATER try to spend the thousands but get denied because they have up to 6 BUSINESS days to clear the funds. FUCKERS.

                                                                                                          What kind of bullshit is that?

                                                                                                          So let me get this straight... if I happened to be IN arizona for example (ccbill) then I can have the funds right away. RIiiiiight.

                                                                                                          Because proximity has SO FUCKING MUCH to do with banking these days.

                                                                                                          My bank usually never holds the checks which i deposit through a teller but when they do try to act stupid and say we willl hold ur check bla bla bla i say im taking my business elsewhere, than the stupid teller goes to her supervisor and the supervisor says okay we wont hold the money...

                                                                                                          FUCKERS

                                                                                                                      Actually, I think I just answered my question. Which Bank!

                                                                                                                      Try Westpac or Bank of Melbourne if you're in Melb. Once you have a relationship with them they will do 4 or more USA cheques for a flat $AUD10 fee. Mine get cleared on the spot with no hold.

                                                                                                                                  You deposit a check from 1 account to the other but it takes 7 business days to clear, so you would earn 9-11 days interest on your money in both banks!!!

So what were the 5 days for? My bank already received the funds from the other bank...

Take him out for a night on the town like he's never had. Limo, barely dressed sexy girls, the works. Get him totally blasted and laid by the end of the night. Get lots of pics of him with the girls when he's wasted. Lots of pics.
