You should ask your boss.
If she can't explain it in simple terms you understand, get another job.
None. What money would they use to cover your bounced checks otherwise?
I am looking to acquire a line of credit to be used as overdraft protection in the event I need it. Unfortunatly, I made some very poor decisions several years ago, and now I can't get approved for anything. I can't finance steam off a hot dog. Where can I get an unsecured line of credit for this? Nothing wildly extravagent, just maybe 1 thousand smackeroos max. None of those prepaid cards are what I want, if I had that money, why would I pay a service to hold onto it? My credit score is about 560 - 580.
Unsecured credit cards are available for bad credit clients, however, the issuing banks charge high fees to cover the risk of extending credit to a bad credit client. You can expect to pay anywhere from $200-$350 or more in fees which the bank will keep, you do not get that money back. Those fees are upfront costs for obtaining a unsecured credit card for bad credit. In some cases, the bank will allow you to pay the fees over two or more months.
In addition, unlike secured credit cards, if you have bad credit and apply for an unsecured credit card, it is not guaranteed that you will be approved. You may be turned down for an unsecured card, even if you are willing to pay the high fees.
Some of the fees that you will pay for an unsecured credit card for bad credit are:
Interest rate: you will pay a high interest rate as a bad credit client.
Annual fee: you will pay an annual fee, which is probably higher than other good credit clients will pay.
Monthly maintenance fees: you will also pay an amount every month called a "maintenance" fee, one top of the interest rate that you're already paying. Read more from: http://www.credit-card-gallery.com/unsec ured_credit_card.html
Several years ago, KeyBank allowed people to link credit cards to their checking accounts in case they overdrew. Now they do not offer this option and the only choice is to sign up for their in-house protection plan (essentially a small line-of-credit plus a sizeable fee).
Are there banks that still allow linking CC to the checking account?
They charged me $37 for the overdraft. It just infuriates me because I was overdrawn $3.87 (I know the amount doesn't matter to the bank, but still...grrr).
In this case, I would have paid less if I utilized CC linking, right? Even with Cash Advance APR and Fee?
Wells Fargo and BofA do. I would strongly not advise you of it, because of the fees involved. It will have the same interest rate as a Cash advance and they charge your additional fees for using it. I bet
when you figure them out the in hose protection is less $. Call your bank and find out what interest rate a cash advance on your cr card is.
Hi there, I just checked my online banking statement and it said there was a returned check. I had some outstanding deposits that apparently didn't deposit. Will the person that I wrote the check out to be notified if I have overdraft protection?
My account says that I am entitled to: "No fees for overdrafts or overdraft transfers, and no annual fee for overdraft line of credit."
There are three ways a returned check works and it will depend on how it worked on your account if they check is going to be returned to the person it was written to.
If you have overdraft line of credit and there were enough funds to cover the check then it will be paid and the person will never know
If you do not have the funds but the bank pays the check and overdrafts your account the person will never know
If you did not have the funds and the bank wouldn't pay the check then it will be returned to the person you wrote the check to.
Citibank (NYSE: C) Cancels Overdraft Protection for Customers with ...
Citibank (NYSE: C) and other firms offer overdraft protection because it’s a very profitable business. Banks can collect massive fees and interest when customers overdraft while using their overdraft protection services. It appears that for at least one customer, Citibank appears to be cancelling customer’s overdraft protection when they don’t make use of the service.
The consumerist received a letter from one of their readers indicating that Citibank would be cancelling the reader’s overdraft protection service because she had managed to avoid making any overdrafts since opening her accounts.
Here’s the letter that the consumerist received:
“I have a Citibank checking account linked to several other accounts (mortgage, credit cards)… due to balances on all of these, I was eligible for the whole package that included a Line of Credit. I did not really want the line of Credit but agreed to it because it provided overdraft protection.
