25 bucks for you
Good question – the fact that they say “payroll” concerns me – sometimes ING will show up in the bank transaction activity as simply: “ING Transfer” – Good luck arguing that as a DD plus you’re out of $10 membership fee. Although you could say its self employed commission sent to ING and DD’d in form of a transfer. Confusing, huh? Many times, service reps. don’t want to piss off new customers.
I use HSBC also since ING has a 3 bank limit but you can have the same problem there – with your verbal follow up, assume a 50-65% success rate – not bad. Go for ones with no fees and where the DD doesn’t have a detailed requirement. No one has a definitive answer – every bank is diferent – some are easy – some are strict.
Does anyone know if paypal/ING/ach push count for DD?
WARNING: THIS WILL RESULT IN A EQ HARD PULL.
Story: I had a woman call me up today to sign me up for online banking. When I am all signed up she tells me I have also been approved for a credit card. I freaked out. The dispute letters are all filled out and sent, we’ll see what happens. FCRA lawsuits are always fun might get a nice default judgement if it doesn’t come off.
If anyone is signing up and wants hook me up with $25, please use my referral code U56792D13I .
Thanks in advance.
