Damn I wish sponsers would stop putting their program name on their checks
 

Seriously, would be nice to be a bit more discreet...

True that!

They just hope you won't cash them

use epassporte instead - rock solid service

I wish people who have to hide where they get their money would stop getting money from those places.

Who's done it this time?

I loved getting color printed porn ad's from Cybererotica with my checks when I was 16 and my Mom happened to open my mail. :)

Not to downplay the importance of this, but what do you care what the teller at the bank thinks about you? If you're mixing your business, why not use two banks? I've never experienced anything bad from telling someone about my business.

Same here. Never once has a teller even looked at me funny.

Sadly not all banks/branches gladly accept money from porn. It's a hassle having to change banks.

Damn I would have been taken to be exorcised at the church by my parents... (They took me to an all-black church to be exorcised once prior when I got expelled from school for my prank of trying to cause racial riots with KKK and black panthers print-outs.)

No, what I did is got my mom to take me down to the post office and got a PO Box (had to have a driver's license to register for one), then I would ride my little bicycle down (age 15) and collect my huge Xpics checks (almost all from Persian Kitty traffic) and deposit them at the ATM.

Which brings us to the moral of the story,: If you aren't proud to be depositing those checks in person, why not just deposit them at the ATM? What are the astronomical odds the person who actually bulk processes them is going to not only know you, but have time to notice ... anything except that they don't fuck up the data entry

It's more about the bank linking it too porn and possibly causing problems than the teller. Although my local bank is small and I get the same girl every time and I don't particularly want to hand her a check from ButtFuckSlutsGoNuts Cash or whatever.

It's just unnecessary to put that stuff in the memo field anyway. Put it separately like most of the big programs do.

LOL! What if you run into a churchie bank teller, they won't cash your site if it says IFuckedYourMom.com on it :D

fuckyoubank

They get fired?

Several years ago I got a letter from my bank telling me that they had information that one of the checks I had recently deposited was going to bounce. I call down and find out which check they are talking about. They tell me and I look it up. It was a from a solid company that had never bounced a check to me. I go down to the bank to find out what they know. Maybe they really know something I don't. The manager pulls me aside and discreetly says, "That check is from an adult company. We find that most of those kinds of checks bounce and are no good." I say, "Really, about 90% of the checks I deposit are from adult companies and I have never had one bounce." He then says, "Oh, I didn't know that."

So a few days later I go down and deposit a few new checks and the teller informs me that there will be a 5-7 business day hold on my checks to make sure they clear. They tell me it will be every check I deposit that gets that treatment. When I ask why the manger comes out and tells me that I could be a "higher risk" customer so they need to do this to protect themselves. I then say, "For the last 3 years you've not made me wait and I have never bounced a check. But then you find out I do work for some adult companies and now all of a sudden I'm a high risk account? That bullshit." He just apologized, but didn't change his mind.

The next day I went down and closed that checking account and my savings account. I'm no high roller, but the savings account had a decent balance in it because I was saving to buy a house. The manager actually had the balls to come out and tell me that he would love for me to stay as a customer and even if I did decide to take my checking account to another bank they would like me to keep my savings account there and that they might even be able to get me a little better interest rate. I said,"But my savings account is full of filthly money from those adult checks you seem to think are high risk, but never bounce. So you feel dirty cashing my checks, but have no problem keeping my money once its cleared?" He just stood there and looked at me with a vacant look.

I closed the accounts and moved on.

BTW the bank in question was Washington Mutual. So when they crashed and burned in the housing collapse I wasn't sorry to see them go. They were shady mother fuckers.

must be a new program lol

I don't care for shit what the people at the bank think or say, I did care about what my mother thought when I was 16 though. Now day's everyone I know knows what I do and if they don't some jealous person I don't like will tell them right away thinking It will put me in a bad spot but It usually doesn't.

It's not me who has a problem. It's my BANK which can have a problem, silly. And I don't want to test their moral policy in case if they feel they have to impose it on me.

Personally I wish they would make it more clear on each check what program it is from so that I don't need to look it up each time.

Yeah I guess it's also that I'm from a sane mostly left wing (yet conservative by nature) country where "everyone is equal" yadda yadda. Plus we have like 6 major banks, so they're all too big to have some kind of slant on who they do business with. There's just no way a branch manager would say something. If they did, their higher ups would bitchslap them something fierce.

I digress. I understand in the US you have thousands of small banks etc, plus things are vastly different state to state.. Hell maybe if it I lived in a small town here I might have issues too.

I'd like it if they'd put where the check was from on the tear-away portion of the check, and leave the deposit portion clean I suppose.

We have a very nice arrangement with our bank that cashes checks super cheap compared to all the rest we've tried in our career. Less than 1€ per check and they clear in a few days. They saved us 1000s of dollars with their cheap rates so we don't want to test them with adult stuff and lose them.

PS: My checks go to my mom's house, where my mom deposits them for me. Always been that way. :D She saves the ads for me... lol

Thats all I'm sayin' :)

I remember getting a check with "I want to be a pornstar" written on it.
Someone thought it might be funny to make it out for only $25.00.

My bank manager has never looked at me the same way again. :(

yup! I thought about it too...

I know that feeling.. the day I got a check from "Triple X Cash" was the same day I went and rented a P.O. Box..
