Nothing wrong with using Online banking
Except the bother of having to remember a password and question in addition to the PIN for the cards, and logging in every few days to keep it open.[/quote]

[quote="dmpotter";p="677518"]Unfortunately Paypal's official policy on losing money through them by scams like this is "fuck you." But best of luck getting the money back.[/quote]

But they do investigate if you notify them of the scam, they get the folks arrested/shut down. Sadly, it just starts right back up again from somebody else.

All I need for mine is the username and pass. It stays open as long as my account stays open, or until I tell the bank to disable it. Much easier than going to an ATM to check my balance or calling in for my transaction history.

The only complaint I have is against National City's online banking. No matter how many complaints I filed, my account never worked. Ever. Since then I've switched and haven't had a single problem.

I have nothing but hatred for HSBC. It's painful trying to get good service through their auto finance dept. I financed my car through Bank of America and HSBC baught the damned loan. I would never CHOOSE to finance through them. I can't imagine how painful actually banking with them would be.

It's actually relatively painless here. They're helpful, they actually DO things, and, unlike America, I can actually find one of their damn branches when looking for one.
(Seriously, I only found one the whole time I was there, and that was pure chance after having been deported the second time.)

Exactly. I checked their websites, and they have about 4 or 5 branches across the entire country.
Which I found disturbing, they're everywhere here.
