join the ranks of the "unbanked" rather than continue with
Chase. I'm in a unique position in that I get most of my

cards and bitcoin accounts that I can use as "savings
accounts". I can pay cash at the Post Office for any
"checks" that I need to put in the mail or give to my
landlords. The main thing I need to be sure of before
closing my Chase account is to verify that I can get my
Paypal account to function without using funds from my Chase
account and that Netflix billing is functioning using one of
my prepaid debit cards. So by no later than mid April 2014 I
anticipate being able to close my Chase account. Sorry if I
seemed to waste everyone's time on this e-mail list with my
endless personal troubles with Chase.<br>

After mulling over your tale of Chase denying you a
particular deposit I'm inclined to send
esilverbullet a USPS money order instead of a
personal check from Chase. It might be nice to see
how deep the "fraud alert" rabbit hole goes if Chase
claimed that my check "bounced" even though I had
more than enough in the account to cover it, but I
don't want to stretch the generosity of the
esilverbullet people any more than I already have
with their giving me an extra 2 weeks to make the
payment if the payment is for 6 months worth of
billing. <br clear="none">

to close my Chase account just as soon
as I successfully open a checking
account at a credit union when I move
to Eugene. The only problem is I tried
to open a checking account at Tech CU
in San Jose and they turned me down
for an alleged "derogatory" Chex
Systems report. When I wrote to Chex
Systems to get my consumer report and
score it came back clean, with a score
of 760 or so out of a possible 999. I
talked to my Legal Shield Identity
Theft Plan people and they said that
banks sometimes get the Chex Systems
report through a third party such as
Experian. So who knows what kind of
negative info Experian dredged up and
added to the report since I have bad
credit. Bad credit is not supposed to
dramatically affect your Chex Systems
report<br clear="none">
<div><span>at least in theory. A year
ago I opened a checking account at
Citibank with no problems.
Unfortunately they don't have a
branch in Eugene so I closed that
account already.<br clear="none">
