Thanks, Justin, Mike. I looked at the HSBC direct site, and also went to the site Michael mentioned, which rated HSBC pretty highly. The delay in getting my funds is actually a plus for me, as right now my "savings" are comingled with my checking, making it way to easy to give myself a "temporary loan," which never gets repaid. :-) I'll open an account today. Thanks. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
