Any good ideas where to look. Job Bank and Resume bank not working.
I think they must be waiting for a tech for repairs.
Wow what bank
did your son use?

I recently had my debit card number stolen when I was visiting in Toronto. My bank's fraud department called me within a day of the fraudulent charges. They had already denied 2 of them, and the one that did go through I was refunded every dime of. I guess I have a pretty good bank! (Wells Fargo).

The cop that I talked to when I filed a report said that they have one guy who does nothing but take the fraud calls every day, that is how many there are now. One poor little old lady had her entire account cleaned out, and on top of that the people somehow managed to SELL her HOUSE out from under her. I don't know exactly how they did that but she was not able to get it back, she was pretty much SOL. I guess it makes good sense to check to see how your bank deals with fraud and what the policy is on giving you back your money.

Also his advice was to get a shredder, and the kind that shreds both ways, and he told me that he even blocked out his address on his car registration. He says he never has anything in his car that has any personal info like that on it. I thought that was interesting and did not even know that was okay to do. But I guess if a cop is doing it it must be!
just called the bank and

Since your a former bank manager- how can I get
my credit score up?  My husband and I want to buy a house with no down payment and the lender said that we need to get our credit score up 18 points to do this.  How?  He mentioned paying our credit cards down to almost a zero balance.  What else can we do?  And how fast could we do it?
Resume Bank.

Hey former bank manager, what
does the "came way" mean?  Is that a banking term?
Smile all the way to the bank!
nm
I would. My son got his job at the bank he believes by
hope it didn't get cut off.
If you bank with Wachovia they have/are

sending 400 call center jobs to India, which also means they have access to your financial information.  I use a local credit union, but have a home equity loan with Wachovia and with that they gave us, checking, savings, credit, debit accounts.  I have closed all but the home equity account so far and told them why.  I'm currently in the process of shopping rates to open a new home equity loan too. 


No telling how many more banks/credit card companies are doing the same.


Talk to your bank
With DD, your bank statement is proof that the company paid you or not. With checks or prepaid credit cards, if it's lost in the mail YOU have no proof it wasn't sent. If it gets screwed up in adding it to the card, YOU have no proof the MTSO is at fault and you have to fight with Visa.

The MTSO is correct in refusing to tell you which other MTs get Visa--they have a right to privacy.

The main problem I can see with Visa is that it's just inappropriate. You'll be forced to spend every penny you earn AND spend it at an establishment that takes Visa. How do you plan on saving? How do you plan to pay your insurance and other expenses? What if your children need $10 for school?

You also may be subjected to fees and/or expiration of the funds on the card.

Why don't you talk to your bank about the safety of direct deposit? Perhaps if they can calm any unfounded fears you have, you can be paid in a more appropriate manner.





Bank jobs
I have a good friend who is a bank branch manager.  Tellers, etc. are entry level.  She just hired my hairdresser!!!!  Don't know about where you live but I think most bank jobs are entry level in the smaller banks at least.
I agree w/you, bank manager...
God is not a vindictive (sp?) God, He is a kind and loving God.  This hurricane is simply nature, and nothing more, I'm sure...Would you bring your wrath down so hard on your own children for something they did that was wrong? Well, that's how God feels about us...His children, everyone of us. Even those who fight so hard to have Him removed from our lives...we are extremely blessed that God is so wonderful!
Put it in the bank. 100 years of interest. Just think!

Give me a break! 


I needed a good laugh, thanks for posting.  Trust me, I'm only laughing at the sheer stupidity of issuing a check for one cent. You can't even rebel and send it back to them because you'd be out 36 cents.


Maybe you should frame it and label it, "My Big Bonus."


because the person used to be a bank manager
nm
I didn't think former bank managers
made any mistakes.
Take the money from your own bank account
I agree..The things *she* donates are from manufacturers that get a plug on her show or from the people who watch her show and donate to her Angel Network. Even when she donated cars, the people who got them had to pay the tax and registration on the cars, which came to a few thousand dollars each.  These people could not even afford to buy new cars and they are gonna come up with a few thousand for taxes, etc.?  Oprah is out of touch with the real world.  I think Stedman Graham said it best on one of her shows, he told Oprah she was not nice.  She seemed shocked and asked well, who is nice and he said Gayle King, her best friend.  Oprah is pompous and acts like she thinks she is smarter and better than others..She isnt in my book.  Come on, Oprah, how much of your billions are you gonna spend in your life time?  Dont take the money from the public who watch your show..take it from your own bank account.
If you make enough of a fuss at your bank they
can, and will, release the funds back to you immediately. We bank at Commerce, and have had so many flubs with our debit card that we have 2 separate accounts - one just for the debit card with a limited balance in case it ever gets hit. But we have had lots of errors - ebay once hit the card for one of those burps at 1 cent for about a zillion times - other errors just like above, and I was told, too, that it had to take 3 days to release the hold. When I flipped out over it, it got released immediately. After all, it is our bank and we are the customer, right? Stick to your guns and you'll get your $$ instantly, if a mistake has been made that is verifiable.
Go to your bank or credit union and they can help
you set it up.   What you claim depends on how you setup the account.  You can claim $$ this year provided it is paid in by 4/15 and get taxed when you take out, or you can put in after taxes and not get taxed when taking out. 
I did, actually I got two jobs through the resume bank.
I went to work for a small independent company and was there for 2 years and then got a job with a national 3 months ago.  Both places had contacted me from my resume being on this site. 
It all depends on when your bank actually posts *sm*
it to your account.
If a person at your bank has to manually process it then it may vary, But they usually have a certain time it has to be done by.

What we were told when I worked in a bank - sm
Sometimes it depends on the time the tapes get loaded, sometimes there is a system glitch, sometimes there is tons to post on a particular day, so for all those reasons and more it can vary.  People used to call all the time and ask if on their payday if they were waiting at the ATM at 12:01 would the money be there.  I useds to tell them not to count on it!  The bank actually has until, I believe, around 10 a.m. on payday to post them, but I have seen some postings later than that.
Oh yeah, I am Bwahaha'ing all the way to the bank (nm)
x
we took an IC's check that worked for my DH to our bank and cashed it for them. sm
the check was returned and they came after us for the money of which we paid, plus the penalty to pick up the check and this was not even our check. we took it to the DA and after over a year, they sent the check back to us and told us it was a stolen check and they were not able to collect on it. our loss, $425.
Quick question for x-bank manager

Is it true what I was told about NOT closing out 0 balance credit card accts?  I never have closed one, just never use them and I have excellent credit, but in general, am I doing the right thing by not closing out?  I get 0 interest cards, typically good for 1 1/2 years and when comes time to be charged interest, I transfer balance to no interest card, do not close acct and have been doing this for years.  I usually do not carry a large balance and have paid outstanding balance to 0 on several occasions.  Thanks for your imput.


in your bank account by direct deposit OR

just showing up in ipay?  Mine says assistance with verification available at ________ . . . . THIS IS NOT A CHECK -- void non-negotiable.


Is the money in your bank today 09/02/2005?


Former Bank Manager, Could you be more specific. I want to make sure I get this right.

Look at my piggy bank after I bought gas yesterday
.
Unless you work in a bank or at a cash register,
doubt they would do a credit check. I remember telling my employer during my interview about my Ch13, explaining the surgery, the divorce, the agony...she sat there and then said "we don't do credit checks." This was at a major hospital. Background checks only.
Charge what the bank or library charges. nm

You can't bank "self-esteem" and if she wants to cut her losses, give it up.
Besides that, you take this to any court, small claims for instance, they can award you the money, but the court does not collect it. It's up to you. So you lost time on the work. Then you lose time in small claims but woo-hoo you win. Then prepare to waste more time collecting the debt small claims said is owed you.

What is your time worth. Mine is worth about 25-30 dollars an hour. I don't have the time or money to devote to chasing down a bad debt. I LOSE AGAIN. Self-esteem? I have self-esteem with or without a company not paying me.
This is the weekend that we are completely revamping the resume bank, so
there may be some disruption until it is live.
Bank debt/check card? Same thing?
Is the prepaid visa card the same as a bank debt or check card?
First, a prepaired debit card is not attached to your bank at all. SM

It is a separate account set up for use with your prepaid debit card only.  No checks.  No bank.  And with the prepaid card, they cannot withdraw money without your prior authorization.  Your employer can only deposit money if your employer provides a signed DD form with your signature on it.


I've never had any problems with my card.  I feel pretty secure.  I do pay bills with my card, but rather than authorize a recurring monthly charge (which you can do), I opt to manually get on the money card website and pay each bill, each month.  So consider this.  Once you authorize a recurring bill payment, it sometimes takes an act of God to stop it.

You're really proud of the 'former bank manager' thing aren't you
Why do you use that name? Just curious.
I keep the minimum amount of cash in the bank. I may sound paranoid but I fully

there to be locked up.  The banks are scampering around if you notice.  They have written notices that they can raise your interest rate to 28% or more for just about no reason on the credit cards.  I think they have let way too much money borrowed out be on the books, and now the little man is having to pay either with money, or his financial credit. 


If you read about GOLD, gold is selling for a lot, all over the world, even in this supposed stable time.  That's a sign they say that things aren't as steady as the powers that be want you to believe.


If you paid by echeck, you will receive your gift pull once the check clears the bank.

Too late now, but what you should have done...
You probably should have deprived yourself of sleep last night and slept today, or better yet a couple nights in a row, just cleaning house or something to keep you "awake" so you can get a jump start on training your sleep cycle.

It is SO hard to do this job sleep deprived because it is so sedentary. I can easily stay up 24 to 35 hours as long as I'm doing something physician and nonbrain-taxing.

If you find yourself nodding off, take a 45-minute nap. I'm sure your employer will understand this is something hard to go into "cold turkey."

Good luck!
Late fee

I do the opposite, I offer a small discount when they pay within five days and in the past five years I have had my checks well within that time frame (usually 2 days) and never have had to ask for my check.

Late fee
I really don't think a late fee is going to make them pay you any earlier.  You really need to sit down with the office manager or whomever  processes your invoice and talk with them.  They probably won't pay the late fee and still take 3 weeks to pay you.  If you stay with the account and this has been a chronic problem you gotta budget to have money to tide you over for the 20 to 30 days or how ever long it takes them to process your check.   Talk to them see what they say and then decide if it is worth the frustration to continue with it.   If this has been going on for quite a while doesn't sound like it is going to change so you either have to live with it or find another account.    In 22 years of doing my own accounts I have never had anyone pay me any later than 10 days after recepit of invoice and that was just a couple of time.  I guess I am lucky but it is the truth. 
late pay
Well, I feel the same way, I don't want to mention the name of the company at this point. I do know however the company actually goes to pick up the checks from the hospitals and has to get them in the bank before she pays her ICs! I have been in this business over 20 years and it's the first time I have encountered something like this.
Late $
We sound like we are in a similar boat. Very nice people, very appreciative of good work, and it does get paid, just late, which most of us cannot handle because our bills need to be paid on time. How do you manage with your bills?
late pay
It isn't easy! When she does pay I try to get enough ahead to pay bills when she is late which is basically every pay period. And luckily, my husband has a good job, but it is one which slows down in the cold months. I Christmas shopped about 6 months ago! Plus, our work has not been slow and I have been able to make an extra $200 or so each week. How do you manage?
Late pay??
Ok, I've never had a problem getting paid before, so I'm not sure what to do. I worked for this small MT company and they still owe me a month's worth of pay. I've tried emailing the person, but she just keeps blowing me off. What should I do next?? (Of course, I quit.) Thanks.
You will get a 30-day late on your...

credit report.  You may also get an "Intention to Foreclose" letter, which will scare the heck out of you.  Those letters standardly go out the day after the 30 days passes.


I agree that your best bet would be to ask for one deferred payment.  Some lenders will do that, but some are very hard-nosed and NEVER do it. 


Will you be able to make your March payment before the end of March?  If so, you should try to schedule both February's and March's payment to come out of your account on specific days . . . say, on March 2 (as you mentioned) and even March 31.  That will keep you from getting another 30-day late.


Once you start to lag behind, it is soooo hard to catch up again.  I'm hoping they let you defer a payment. 


153 in my late 20s...however I do believe it is going down.
as I once was, that's for sure.
don't know if too late, but....sm
doesn't your insurance cover such things...mine would have replaced the whole thing.
Definitely late 40s for me
Here I sit, having worked six days in a row with one day off and starting new week facing more OT due to computer down with one MT and death in family with another.

Did it in my 20s and 30s with no problem.

Now, however, I have eye strain and sore hips from sitting so long and really am rum-drummy if that is a good description. Fear making an error.

And, I do not make much more money as I have to proof everything and think before I type which slows me down in long run.

Yes, give me 40 hour week over the age of 40. Long complicated reports is where my expertise is these days.
