11/22 So I have this fear of using automatic deposit through my company.
I need to put in a 9 digit routing number and a 10 digit account
number. What if I enter one digit off? I'd be *one* keystroke from
losing hundreds of dollars. What mechanisms are there to prevent
this from happening? -noob
\_ They can check that the name on the account is your name, for one.
\_ So if I want to wire a portion of my paycheck to my mother's
account [without my name on it], I'm unable to do so? The
company web site doesn't allow me to enter extra information
like name, address, etc. It only asks for routing+acct.
\_ not a great idea for direct deposit. consider using
paypal or billpay for that.
\_ Just triple-check it. |
