alternative to credit card - GoFuckYourself.com

I need something that is as good as a credit card yet be able to keep a balance of my own chosing. WHat I mean is that goodasgold and atm check cards require security deposits or insane minimum balances, Paypal is out of the question.
any ideas?

No need to get cocky.

I have an account at that bank and yes I have followed the link. In order to process the request I have to sign a form and mail them 100 dollars. 100 dollars that is tied up in bills right now. Fuck... all this trouble to just renew a domain for 20 bux. Fuck I hate banks,,,, I miss the good old days of money orders and cold hard cash.

This isn't TD Canada Trust. It's TD Waterhouse, TDBFG's American subsiduary. Technically, they're two different banks.
If you have TDCT bank accounts, they'll wave the $100 opening deposit.

Yeah, they don't mention anything on the website. But when I was filling in the application form, I called them to confirm a few things, and I asked about the check and they were like "you don't need it because you have accounts with TDCT"

They're very friendly

iwantchixx · 05-26-2003, 08:20 PM

Well thanks for the info. I'm going to go in and talk to them tomorow afternoon to get me all setup.

iwantchixx · 05-26-2003, 09:47 PM

From what I gather epassporte can only be loaded by credit cards or other epassporte users. maybe I am wrong
