I just rang this number. I've started the process. They're sending me the forms and I'll fill them in and send them back. She confirmed that I'd be getting a checking account (called "Four Star"). There is no mimum, and no service fees balance. I can get overdraft protection using a savings account. If I open the savings account, I can get that ATM card which Adam mentioned in a previous message. BTW: They asked how I had heard of them; I said it was mailing list I was on and mentioned the Money Magazine article. my first impressions: it was easy. they were helpful. if all my transactions with them go that well, I will be very happy. I'll keep you all posted as to what happens. -- Dan Langille pgpkey - finger dan@unixathome.org | http://unixathome.org/finger.php To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
