Bailed out banks won't cash SS checks

[Ub3rB0ng]

First of all how old are you and WHY dont you have a bank account? Why didnt you go to a check cashing place? The banks dont care unless your a customer.......no banks right now are gonna take some joe nobody walking in off the street with a huge check not from their bank and cash it without a bank account. It aint gonna happen.

This is 2010.......and its called direct deposit. Go open a bank account. Do you keep all your SS money in your mattress??

Seriously......Holy Cow dude.

check cashing places rape you more than banks do,something crazy like 5 bucks
for every 100 or more sometimes ive seen.I have a bank account,but sometimes have to deal with other banks because family will gift us money but have both our names on it,and ill never have a joint account ever again after my first wife screwed me on that.My grandpa paid me from his business account for a gift not long ago after the baby was born and his bank(bank of america) charged me 5 friggin bucks to cash it there,all because it said me and wifey, not me or wifey.

Chase, who has taken billions in bail out money from the taxpayer, refused to cash my check unless I opened an account. I told Rating: 5
