This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Just curious. Why not just get a different bank or credit union?

Mentioned in another post, but I don't qualify for many credit unions beyond my local one that I currently use. I've used a few different bank options, but none of them have really been any better, and usually worse.

Your current one as in, your credit union is the one charging you these "insufficient fund" fees?

I'm admittedly not educated in the law of banks and credit unions, but I have a feeling they aren't meant to be doing that.. not that the little man like you or I could do much about it 🤷🏾‍♂️

Yeah, like I said, not entirely sure it's legal, but that's the boat I'm in. The other banks did the same shit, charged me more, and offered me worse rates on loans. At least this one spits on it before going in.

That's rough buddy. Time to get a fake identity and open an account in a different state with stricter banking laws
