If you bank with Wells Fargo you may or may not know this but I found out the hard way.  Apparently Wells Fargo has what they are calling a security measure that limits what you can spend in one day using you check/debit card.  I'm not talking a withdrawal from the ATM, I'm talking just card swipes or online purchases.  Their default limit is $1500 total in transactions daily.  This is important to know because one day you may need to make a purchase greater than that, pay to have your car fixed, pay a medical bill etc.  It can be embarrassing if your at he store and your poo keeps getting declined when you have plenty of money in the bank.  You can call wells fargo to have them increase it to $5000 and if you need more than that they have to have some one higher up overide it.  Its all a bunch of BS.  This should be a security measure you should be able to opt in or out of.  I don't need someone telling me how much of my own fuging money I can spend in one day.

But if someone got access to your account and started spending like a thief, I'm sure you might appreciate such a feature. 

I always notify my bank when I'm headed out of the country so they know to allow overseas transactions and I usually call them if I need to make a larger purchase using my card.

I was with first union way back in '99 until they became wells fargo and they treated me like I didn't matter when I requested they waive a deposit fee because I didn't make enough to not trigger a $10 fee.. so I sayonara'd outta there to a local credit union and been happy since.

I actually reduced mine to $300. I know how much I generally spend on average, and anything over that amount is going to be a large purchase so I know to call ahead of time to up my limit for the day. With access to credit card info so easy to obtain, keeping a tight reign on your spending limit is not a bad thing.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!

      Inappropriate relationship with a team staffer, followed up with some stalking behavior, and ultimately a felony home invasion charge from a visit at her apartment that culminated in him threatening her life and his as well.
