I got my Umbrella Bank platinum Visa in the mail yesterday. No problems with them so far and the card worked when I used it. With their great rewards program I'll probably use it exclusively from now on. I've split my direct depost between Umbrella and TD Waterhouse. If I don't have any hassles with them I'll probably move my checking account entirely to Umbrella.
Why don't you ever explain your comments? Is it because you don't even understand what you are saying?
LKH, Obviously he doesn't because he answers his own post *normally* about six times in a row....and NONE of them make sense!!
from Umbrellabank website ------------------------------------------------------- Is UmbrellaBank, fsb FDIC-Insured? Absolutely. UmbrellaBank, fsb is a FDIC-insured, federally chartered savings and loan association. Our FDIC Insurance Certificate Number is 32569. ---------------------------------------------------------- Unless Dave has over $100,000 cash with Umbrella, his money will be safer than if it was in his own pocket. I have to agree with all, lbrown makes about as much sense as two monkeys f#$$ing a football.
Sometimes I try to get folks brains started so they can think for themselves. At times it don't work because there is nothing there to start.
Why don't you try to get your own brain started? I'll give you some free advice that you're not going to like and didn't ask for. Have you noticed that most people chastise you for the majority of your posts? Sometimes even newbies. While you may think what your about to post makes sense to you, it doesn't to alot of us. How does a statement like: "Not a good idea unless you want to take a chance on having your money wiped out." make sense. Do you have some special insight about Umbrella bank, that if explained, might substantiate your claim? Obviously not, an FDIC insured bank can't "wipe your money out". If you think it's over our heads, your sadly mistaken, it just doesn't make sense. If you think your a genius, spend some of that brain-power on: Learning grammar Explaining your reasoning in a post Responding to a post 1 time Trying to be helpful Should I go on? I had you on ignore, should I have left you there? I'm hoping that you actually care somewhat about this board and the topics discussed here. You are obviously here alot. How are your scores? Do you have derogs left? Are you here to repair? Are you done repairing and here for rebuilding or prime info? Or are you just here to pass George in number of posts and annoy people? Do you think that stupid comments, most times, with no basis and explanation help anyone? make you new friends? Get our brains started? I realize not every post is on topic or helpful. But generally the people here have some kind of rapport with each other. Joking, commiserating, etc. are common posts with some, I do it myself. Really lbrown, what is the point? Why are you here?
DaveLV How long did it take before you received the credit card in the mail I received my debit card and pin, but I still haven't received my credit card or checks Though both accounts show up on the website
I got my welcome package today and my Visa.... got my debit card and PIN the other day so I'm all set. The welcome package was kinda cool.... so far I'm quite happy with Umbrella Bank. =-) Ozzy.
Kelly -- I applied online on the 9th of March, sent my deposit on the 18th and got my card last week.
1*Tell me what you know about FDIC. What is it? How does it work? 2*Can he bank on that Are you sure? 3*Things you don't understand don't make sense,
