What bank offers the best bank account and services for students? March 24, 2010

I am now a Regions customer and have been really unsatisfied with their services. I have never had so many problems with a bank before. The overdraft fees, the poor customer service, and I just recently found out from a teleservice representative at Regions corporate that the corporate offices gave each bank branch power over the accounts they open. Meaning, if a branch manager decides that he/she doesn’t want to refund overdraft fees regardless of the reason, he/she does not have to. Does anyone reccommend a bank and/or bank account that is student-friendly?

How does a loan indexed against a basket of currencies work? March 6, 2010
Posted by Credit in : Other - Business & Finance , 2commentsPaul McBride asked:
A couple of year s ago. I took out an auto loan and the lender in the country I am living in indexed the loadn against a basket of currencies. Everything seemed to be going fine until recently when the currency of the country I am living in started to depreciate against other currencies. I notice that my new principal took a hit in the upward direct by approximately the same percentage as the decline in the local currency so I now owe more than I did a year ago. If my currency here recovers to previous levels will the principal also go down?

How to provide a check in Sterling drawn on a British bank short of opening my own account? March 5, 2010
Posted by Credit in : Other - Business & Finance , 2commentsanza_1 asked:
I may have a need to provide payment to a British company. Their requirement is that I pay them in Pounds with a check drawn from a British bank. This will be a one time event, so I’d prefer to not go through the onnerous task of opening a bank account as a US resident with a British bank to just make this one transaction.

Paul Wolfowitz, the president of World Bank, was claimed to be conducting corruption because he gave quite a high wage for his girlfriend. He has now been overthrown, but World Bank is still struggling with the corruption issue. So, what solutions can you suggest? Do you think that if they become more transparent in their lending and borrowing money to the countries is a good solution? Please verify your opinion. Thx a lot! ^0^

I understand that all banks “lend” you money without asking and then charge you for it. I don’t see why they don’t just deny the transaction, but then I think about the millions they would loose.

How much does your bank charge? Do you know the cheapest?
