I can't get my money for a while after and it messes up my account. Quoting: ookieThis why it might be more advantageous to buy gas on a CC and just pay the balance every mo to avoid finance charges, instead of using a debit card, or process the Debit card AS a CC transaction. -V- |

I use a debit that way to avoid any fees...it still comes out of the checking account. I never forgive and I never forget I am a licensed firearm holder.

Psychologically it's easier to stomach 14.00 at a time rather than 60.00+ each time. Plus, it's better for your car to keep it full rather than let it get down to the dregs. |

No fly zone...even the people within the middle east resent our interference....to hell with going over there and starting world war 3....and to hell with their oil...why can't we just start drilling our own oil...? |

Quoting: -V- 546778I'm just sayin' -V- WHY oh why do people who know better STILL do business with these fuckers? Go with a small local bank or a credit union. If a bank operates in more than 1 state, stay away! I do use BofA. For 1 thing. I own a business and I frequently need to get change. Years ago I got myself a bankamerica bank bag and now I always go to their drive thru for change. They won't do it for non-customers but because of that bag they think I am a customer. Why do I do it? Because I know it Costs THEM money. Just a couple of cents each time, but it is the thought that counts. We should do everything in our power to put these bastards out of business. 'When Plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men, they create for themselves, in the course of time, a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.' Frederic Bastiat, 'The Law' 1850 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." JohnSwinton, 1830-1901, Former chief-of-staff New York Times ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The bold effort the present bank has made to control the Government, the distress it has wantonly produced ... are but premonitions of the fate that awaits the American People should they be deluded into a perpetuation of this institution (The Bank of the United States), or the establishment of another like it." Andrew Jackson (December 2, 1834) |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 744051Well, guess I will just cash my check and I won't have to worry about it. I know nothing and if I think I know something I know nothing. I do not give legal advice because I don't know legal things. Sorry, it's YOUR money in THEIR account, and they can decide when you get it, how they will hold pending charges for gas transactions and anything else they want to decide. You GAVE it to them to manage and they are MANAGING it. It's YOUR account when you can log in and add debit and credit to the account by your action alone. You are part of the problem if you stay a customer when someone does something 'unconscionable' to you and all you do is complain. YOU, not this poster, but a general statement of you, have given authority over yourself to someone else and wonder why they treat you like a child. You register in a system that treats you like crap and then wonder why when you vote on one side or the other, the same she-eyt happens. No one has the guts to say, I"m calling it quits out of this system..Now see how many people you can 'screw over' when you have zero people to call your constituents. Oh and expired is not the same as calling it quits...just like it took action to be registered it takes action to unregister. |

And it's better for an engine not to let your tank to get down to the dregs. I used to wait until it was at 3/4 empty, then fill up, but like I said, it's mentally easier to do it this way.
