banking

Yes alot of the time I do use the drive thru window. If the line isn't too long.

ugh! that's true. seems like the lines are the longest in the summers!!

do you use their drive-thru's to deposit? thank goodness for those at times too. helps when the kids are in the car! easier to drive thru rather than haul them in!!

yep! and you don't have to deal with rude tellers, and the lines like you mentioned. and also our fast paced life as you mentioned, that's the biggie. anything that can help us make our lives that much more convenient, well it's a keeper!! thanks for responding!

oh my goodness! it's awesome to have online banking for your needs especially!

that's another feature that's great. now you don't have to drive to send that money! so much easier! and safer, cuz you get confirmation quickly! you KNOW where your money is then. and you're right, even on sunday's! now THAT'S convenience!

i'm glad to hear that about people liking the online banking experience. cuz there are people who are afriad of online things, such as the banking, or placing orders online, paying with credit cards online...i haven't had any probs yet...

same here, we have direct deposits, and pay most bills online. i LOVE paying bills online...don't feel right sending them thru mail at times, what if it's lost, what if someone steals it? online i have confirmation quickly of the payment received, helps me to breathe better! ha ha. AND as you said, postage keeps going up and up. i buy stamps, use one, then the postage goes up, and i have to buy, say 2 cent stamps to make up the difference? it's not worth it for me. AND i'm not good about sending out cards for birthdays and such, miss the date to send them, so it's much easier for me to do e-cards. and people seem to be ok with that. it'll help save the environment, less paper use right? and i email constantly, don't know the last time i sent out an actual hand-written letter. some feel that is impersonal, but not me, email me anytime ya know, cuz i can get RIGHT back to you. that's how i feel anyway! thanks for your response melissa.

i love technology and the power of the web as long (as you're careful)!! so much more convenient!! and so much more access to EVERYTHING!! i never use the yellow/white pages BOOKS anymore, cuz it's so much easier to just find addresses/directions and such online!!

sometimes you just can't get reply's you truly need online. i had the same problem with our phone company. sorry to hear of your experience.

i think it does scare some people, but i am more afraid of using the mail system. we have had some probs with it recently, people getting into people's mailboxes and such. when i pay my bills, i want them paid...i don't want to sit and wonder if they will get paid. a lot of sites are secure where you can use your credit cards and such. you ahve to look for the secure site symbols and such, and banks are secure, i mean as secure as going and handing you money to a teller, can't always trust those worker's either...hear stories all the time about actual employees stealing from the workplace...nothing is completely safe anymore sad to say

plus we save on gas money then!! ha ha. AND don't have to talk to the clerks. i feel our bank accounts are our personal business, so this makes more sense to me to keep my business to myself, ya know.

i totally agree! and there are so, well too many different options and buttons to push if you use the phone...it's SOOO much easier to just see it with your own eyes, much more user-friendly!

OMG, LOL!!! that's so true what you say about the pending stuff. my hubby gets mad and says he can't surprise me with flowers, and pay for it on his card, or else i'll see it cuz i check it a couple times a day. it goes thru so fast i would know in an instant...of course i told him, 'yea nice excuse for NOT getting me flowers'....HA HA HA HA! however, he is right!! but i still love how quick it is!

thanks for your response! it's so much easier to check your balance and such online! love technology!!

you said it girl! i agree completely!!

i am so annoyed with the phone...so this is just a great way to do what you want and not have to wait, or "hold please"! lol! i'm much faster typing on the computer than dialing numbers on the phone!!!

OMG, $80 charge? for the luxury of "them tellin you". YES, i hate all these weird charges here and there, if ONE thing goes wrong. that's why i check mine every single day to monitor it too!! ooh, let me know how that next call for you will go, about giving them that invoice...i hate confrontation with businesses like that, BUT you have to protect your money, we work hard for our money, and sometimes that gets taken advantage of, you go!!! nice!!
