Banks that DO NOT like porn checks - GoFuckYourself.com

AdultNex · 01-29-2005, 10:44 AM

Bank of America has had a history of not approving adult-related checks.

Has anyone had any conflict with M&T Bank?

Fletch XXX · 01-29-2005, 10:45 AM

i get lots of envelopes a day though

pornstar2pac · 01-29-2005, 10:45 AM

steffie · 01-29-2005, 10:47 AM

Never had a problem with them, they are also my bank.. I also never had a check which said "PORN" on it, just the companies name.

I have been with Barnett Bank= > Nations Bank => Bank Of America

I have been cashing Adult Checks for 2 1/2 years..
Not a single issue though I do know both managers of the BOA thats close to my house

Doc911 · 01-29-2005, 10:51 AM

I've never had a problem cashing checks from the industry

Never had a problem with them. Do everything by wire, and you'll have no trouble at all.

Dax · 01-29-2005, 10:55 AM

There is not a problem CASHING checks.. it is a problem when u want to open a checking account and they find out that it is for a porn company... At least that was the story with BOA.

That's why you use a generic sounding company name. Then dba the adult ones.

I have been using BOA for years and never once did I have any problems. Banks don't give a rats ass what name is on a check, that's really not their concern at all.

Ah, thanks for the clarification.

Harmon · 01-29-2005, 11:44 AM

How do they know they are from an adult related company? Did you tell them?

ytcracker · 01-29-2005, 11:45 AM

Exactly

never had a problem so far

XpressMedia · 01-29-2005, 12:12 PM

None of the Local banks around here like porn checks.

Indica · 01-29-2005, 12:25 PM

no problems cashing any cheques at my bank.
dont get how its any of their buissness.. they get theirs still regardless. fuckers.

webair · 01-29-2005, 12:25 PM

citibank dropped me about 4 years ago for that very reason all of my account even personal ones as well fukkers

Fizzgig · 01-29-2005, 12:32 PM

We don't have problems usually. Just a waiting period to cash U.S. cheques.

SplitInfinity · 01-29-2005, 12:34 PM

I have been banking with BOFA for over 10 years. We have been depositing big checks from big companies with profane names constantly. Never any problems.
My personal banker, whom I just called about this issue, claims that BOFA will not as a policy close an account for the names on the checks they deposit for you, OR the company name itself. There have been instances where in the past, employees tried to raise a stink claiming sexual abuse in the work place, being forced to read the names on some checks, however since then all employees had to sign contracts and other papers to put an end to those charges/claims. However, they told me they have never closed an account due to names on checks or accounts in her recollection and stated that perhaps if someones account was closed, there were other reasons on top of it?

Anyway, we have been with them for quite some time and I value them as our primary bank.

I would however be careful of some offshore banks.

I dont really think BOFA would mess with multi million dollar accounts.... However smaller ones, I have no idea.... I dont think anyone is ever safe in this world.
Keeping a bank-style safe in my home proved no security as well when my home burned down..... the door was left open and, well, you can guess the rest.

Raven · 01-29-2005, 01:24 PM

I've not had a problem with BofA, which doesn't mean it can't happen. I do have a back up bank account and my corporate name is generic sounding.

As I recall, Silver Cash had their account closed, which makes me careful.

There was a sponsor program whose name appeared on the check and I was not comfortable with that. MegaPornBucks, I think it was.

XpressMedia · 01-29-2005, 01:41 PM

I've hade some odd questions..

smack · 01-29-2005, 01:45 PM

no they're always quite happy to take my money.

blazi · 01-29-2005, 01:48 PM

all banks should accept LEGAL cheques, what's the big deal anyway? Who cares where the cheque came from so long as it's legal IMO

webgurl · 01-29-2005, 01:49 PM

I had never had a problem with my checks from the adult bizz before , but than again i look cute n innocent LOL

xclusive · 01-29-2005, 01:50 PM

I haven't had a problem with B of A but i've only been with them as part of the fleet deal a few months second they fuck with me though i'm out of there.

KRL · 01-29-2005, 02:24 PM

I've had just one problem like this about 15 years ago. Went to open an account at a medium sized bank in LA. Gave the new accounts manager a $60,000 opening deposit check. She's filling out the form and starts asking what our company does and I told her pay-per-call 900 programs, and she goes you mean like those phone sex numbers? and I said yes we do that and mainstream as well. She stopped filling out the forms, handed me the back check and said we don't do business with adult entertainment companies.

Methodcash Rick · 01-29-2005, 02:27 PM

I think all this talk about BOA not liking adult is total horse shit...

I've been banking with them, personal and business since 95.

Also, if they didn't like adult, how come CCBill is with Bank Of America..

That's just too cold! I bet they changed their policy today though.

Webby · 01-29-2005, 02:36 PM

Never ever had any problems with banks on adult stuff. In fact the opposite, but that still don't make em anything other than utter assholes who can't be trusted with shit:-)

I always like they way "specialists" in the banking community come along and feel they are going to "help" you with your biz then start spewing total crap out of some bank survey they did on an industry, which bears no relation to reality in that industry. They just get told nicely to shut the fuck up and while your here - start learning something.

S P A N N O W · 01-29-2005, 02:38 PM

My bank actually used to tease me about the checks/names. Never had a problem but I did get an insider warning: when you deposit more than $10,000 in cash, the bank is REQUIRED to flag that account for the IRS! So be on the lookout for those 1099s!!!

I remember the first time I ended up showing bankers around a dildo production unit we ran.

I was so used to it, I never even thought some would slip into a wide-eyed and stupid mode. Then of course, all these "suits" ended up with the usual banal jokes about how they'd like to stuff one of them up whatever girl back in the office - pathetic mob!!

rebel23 · 01-29-2005, 02:50 PM

I once sold an adult domain and the buyer printed it on the check

trying to explain that one was fun!

yep I've been with them since 92.... Never have I had a problem... That's why I couldn't understand why Silvercash had one.

I guess you would have a problem with any bank if you have a asswipe for Mrg.

suesheboy · 01-29-2005, 03:01 PM

Never had a prblem yet.

Shooting_Manic · 01-29-2005, 03:18 PM

Never had it questioned really. Then again, all my affiliates have been ccbill pretty much so its not really ever been a problem anywhere.

Sometimes we gotta stand back and think of what we are actually doing

Don't bankers (hell and all these "suits"!) love a bit of porn or the thought they might bump into some naked girl when they visit? :-)

They must think we got em sprawled out over the office screaming to be fucked 24/7

(Maybe the marketing is kinda good! *s*)
