Heh, java. I know about the regulations change because Bells Bargo now has a thrilling little infopage on its website telling customers all about the fabulous new opportunity they have, starting July 1, to opt into their completely splendid ATM card overdraft protection program for a mere $35 a pop.
Yeah, I opted out of BofA's. If I don't have the money in my checking account when I use my debit, I want them to decline the purchase.
They also changed the rules about the order in which debits are received. Banks would "cash" the largest debit that came in, even if it was the third item of the day, first. That way, the other smaller debits would be charged overdraft fees - but there would have only been one fee if they'd put the smaller debits through first.

And also, Yay for successful surgery for The Girl's father.
Okay. Poked around a bit (JenK had recommended the SF Firefighters Credit Union), and the Yelp reviews are really really selling me. I'm pretty certain that once the current round of bills clears and we're all square with the current bank, we're moving.
Adding to what javachik posted, I believe they will now have to process deposits first brfore debits.

Well, we're about 70% moved and I'm exhausted. My Fucking Uncle has been doing drive-by's all freaking day. Assface.
15 more hours and we're done. Thank God.
Ow. Headache. Maybe scotch isn't so nice.

Are you sufficiently hydrated? Important when boozing....
Like all other financial institutions, Bank of America is affected by the new rule, but it is going a step further than the rule requires. Starting June 19, Bank of America customers' debit card purchases will no longer go through if there is not enough money in their account, according to a March 10 Associate Press story. And if a customer attempts to withdraw more than his or her balance, he or she will have to agree to pay a $35 overdraft fee before the ATM will disperse the requested funds
Fuckin Commies. Where is my America, huh?
