What banks will let you use a credit card for the opening deposit when you open a savings account? March 9, 2010

Posted by Banking in : Personal Finance , 6comments

I want to open a savings account for about $700 and charge the opening deposit to a credit card. The credit card gets points, which would be good for a gift card if I had about 700 more. I want to close the credit card account, but only after I get enough points, to not waste the points I already have. I’m going to open a savings account anyway, so I figure I might as well get those 700 points from it. In any case, the savings account should pay high interest and should allow transactions between banks online.
For example, Bank of America will let you open a checking account online, and use a credit card to fund it. The credit card transaction will be a purchase, not a cash advance. But I want to know what other banks will do that, and which of them will do it for savings accounts.Submited by:Dilbert

What do you do if you are in this situation with a bank loan? November 22, 2009

Posted by Banking in : Credit , 4comments
I got a personal loan to pay off my credit cards back in October of 2005. Everything seem to go fine with all of my cards except my Bank of America card. First Commonwealth Bank (my lendor) sent the check and it was processed. A week later Bank of America sends me a letter saying there wasn’t enough funds in the checking account the check came from. I thought this was weird since this came from First Commonwealth’s account. Anyway the bank manager helped me with the situation and found out that it was Bank of America’s fault. The situation seemed resolved in May. Then a week later Bank of America sends me another letter saying the same thing as before. Now here I am with the same situation I was in 10 months ago. First Commonwealth did an investigation on their side of the transaction and concluded that the money was processed and left their account back in October 2005. It is Bank of America’s fault, but they are giving me the “run-around.” What should be my next action?

For example…Citibank, Bank of America, Chase

Why do stores have their own credit cards? What purpose does it serve? Are store cards better to use at that store as in interest rates or what? Examples would be Express, Abercrombie & Fitch, Lucky….

I am trying to choose between these two banks- unless there’s another credit card that would be better than what these banks offer…
Please give me the reasons for your suggestion- thanks!
