Rod, Was this your wife or friend or theif that was takeing money out of your account without approval? Was this through any fault of your own as in an ex-spouse whos still has shared account credit cards or anything like that?

I’ve been with FNBO Direct for about 2 years now, and have been very pleased with them. Never a problem with transfers, and they are prompt, only 2-3 business days. Rates are low now but better than most locals banks. I have 2 savings accounts with them, one for a specialize purpose. I definitely recommend them.

After checking out so many online banks, I still like FNBO Direct because their web interface is just so simple, unlike some of the other competitors. No one ever complains about them either so that makes me feel comfortable depositing my money with them.

I love the simplicity of fnbo direct. Other companies seem to heavily advertise “no fine print” and everything but this bank just shows it by having a simple website, simple ads and simple terms.

I just wish fnbo will raise rates.

FNBO Direct is pretty cool. It’s not everyday that you get a bank that offers a simple interface and bill pay for free. If you want CD, you have to open an online savings account first which is a little weird but no biggy since I wouldn’t mind being their customer in the first place.

If you read MoneyNing’s post a few days ago, you can find the place to get free credit reports. I suggest going there to get a free credit report and see if there are anything you can see that can be fixed.

Good luck.

Liz: Anther suggestion I’d have is to visit a free credit report company. Basically, your banking account history—kind of like your credit history. There, you can order the report for free once every two years. If you’ve been turned down in the last 6 months, you can get if for free. With the history, you can see if your history—all the accounts you’ve opened, if you’ve had too many bounced checks, etc.
