If you mean that direct deposits can be transmitted to your bank a few days before your actual paydate, then yes, that is true. However, it is a CRIME to release those funds into the account before that date.
What I'm reading into your ROR is that you are blatantly spending money BEFORE it's deposited to your account. This is also a crime.
You, sir, are a classic example of an INTENTIONAL overdrafter. You have no one to blame but yourself.

I say this in all seriousness. Too many people in America have checking accounts. Not everyone should have a checking account. If you cant manage your account and your bank's policies well enough to avoid nsf/od fees, then really you just close it and open a savings instead. You can still cash your paychecks or social security checks with a savings account. You can still use an ATM card. You just couldnt write checks or use a check debit visa card, which is to your benefit because that is the cause of 95% of od fees. But even with savings, you will have some fees. You can only do 6 electronic withdrawals a month from savings before a $15 fee starts (federal regulation) Most savings acct also have a balance requirement else a monthly fee starts. But these fees are nowhere near the od fees you would pay on a checking account. Go savings.

Your advice seemed sarcastic and mocking to me. If I was wrong, I'm sorry, but you should know better than anyone how easy it is to misinterpret someone on here.

The OP wrote that he will sue them and even added that he means it. I should think that you'd be happy that I encouraged him to sue US Bank. By going through with the lawsuit and posting the docket number here, we'd have a point of reference for future users who wish to sue the bank. What advice can one give when the OP was so vague with the details and already seems to have made up their mind about suing the bank?
