E trade is an ATM company, or atleast they have ATM'S.
Anywho, i was trying to get money out yesterday, 260 bucks...shit said i didnt have enough.

I knew i had 260 dollars and change, enough for the subcharge.

So i say fuck it, gimme 240.

Insufficient funds.

Wtfeezy? I've gotta go to vegas tomorrow morning. So i'm starting to get scared and shit.

200 bucks?

I sat there in suspense watching the "please wait a moment..." screen, felt like 2 minutes had past....out spits 200 bucks. So im like cool, 60 dollars ill take that out tomorrow in a less wacky atm.

So i check my bank account today and nothing has been touched, the original 260 was still there. and i monitored my bank account today to make sure it didnt clear, and the same amount sat idly by.

so fuck it. cashed that 260 out too.
im basically up 200 bucks in the game for vegas.

E* trade = pwned

Even if they figure it out, which would be some hardy boys mystery shit i'd give them props for (i basically just snitched on myself, anyway.. or did i give a clue?), i get paid next week, its a loan.

lllllllloooaaaawwwwnnnnneeed.

yeah, thats happened to me before.

do you got your money in an account or tied up in stocks?
You gotta maintain a 2000 dollar balance to keep an account though. I put like 4 G into sirius when I opened my account and was able to take money out no problem. Now that sirius has gone down the shitter (I think its at 3.50 now and I bought it at 6.25), I can't take money out.

a lot of times if you do it on the weekend or a holiday it wont show up on your account untill days later. But you will still get hit with both withdrawls and an insufficient funds fee when they take you negative. I guarantee if you check your acct within the next week, you will be $200+ in the negative

Sometimes those ATM's that aren't at your bank can take a couple days to clear, but you shouldn't be responsible for any overdraft charges, because technically, it wasn't your fault.


Nice come up ! They'll figure it out and take the money out eventually, but at least you got some extra cash flow !


Have fun in Skin City !

i worked at a bank, and honestly i learned the hard way when i wasnt working at one, so i already know the deal about them bieng able to figure it out, which is why i mentioned it.

but they might not....because alot of bank workers arent too smart.

and even if they do, like i said i needed extra spending money. imma bet they dont figure it out though..ha!

or maybe i should keep my betting in vegas and not on siccness..

edit: and thanks for the vegas luck shout outs...any of yall live up there hit me when i touch down we'll blow one in yo town
