Capital One is doing soft credit checks on me every 3 months… I don’t like it. I ran my credit on AnnualCreditReport.com (the actual free one, that they are legally obligated to supply in my understanding) and on Equifax I am seeing CAPITAL ONE BANK USA NA doing a soft credit check every 3 months or so for the last year. I know that this does not negatively affect my credit score, but it still bugs me. I know this is how t…

What should my dad do with Social Security checks? He’s 66 and waited all the way to the max so his monthly social security checks are 1912. He’s going to continue working as a bus driver for the next 5 years & doing so will increase the monthly amount to 2400 after 5 years. He takes care of himself, but his movement and weight do restrict his ability to do stuff. He wants to make sure he can ta…

LPT: For emails, if you’re not confident about your communication skills, write them in Word and run spelling and grammar checks on them FIRST. This will help you when writing important emails and/or when they will be sent to many people, particularly executives. People make assumptions about you for poorly written emails, especially if they don’t know you or your work. submitted by /u/Mach5Driver

3 hard credit checks from one day I purchased a car a few months ago and I was looking at my credit report through capital one (I know that’s not the most accurate) and it is showing 3 inquiries on my report from that day, 1 from the chase, Wells Fargo, and the dealership. I understand when getting rates they will check with multiple banks, but shouldn’t that only count as one h…

‘The Guest’ Checks In and Then Takes People Out Come for the turndown service, stay for the perverts and ax-wielding maniac.

An ode to checks/cheques New York Times article today about “Why Checks Refuse to Die.”. Plus a lot of Reddit posts like, “Omg, people still use checks?” I hear you. They’re old, they’re slow, they feel more inconvenient to write than tapping a few buttons. But they also have advantages. And I suspect those who pay rent/utilities/parking tickets/gym memberships/etc. onl…

Wells Fargo Super checks question Am I understanding this correctly, I can just write a check to myself (even up to the enitre credit limit) and use it to pay whatever. And it counts as a balance transfer? So 3% loan? This seems too good to be true, I must be missing something? submitted by /u/ParticularClean9568

I am showing 5 hard credit checks after visiting a dealership today. Do these all appear as 1? I am looking for an auto loan and after visiting the dealership today and getting approved, I noticed they ran it through 5 different lenders. For mortgages, and hits on my credit, are these inquiries counted as 1 because the dealership was comparing rates or will they all be viewed separate inquiries? I am now “below average” in the number of …

U.S. Treasury checks won’t cash or deposit anywhere… I got issued refund checks after being approved for student loan forgiveness (my school was found guilty of over exaggerating a lot of things). I went to my bank, Wells Fargo and they couldn’t cash either of the checks I had, but they were able to deposit one, which was about $500, but couldn’t deposit the other which was around $3800. I asked w…

Lender always forgets to deposit my checks An individual loaned me money to pay for the balloon payment on land I bought. In the past year she became more scattered and has been consistently forgetting to deposit the monthly checks I send via the “bill pay” feature of my online banking. Checks were going stale sitting on her desk and it makes it harder for me to manage my finances – some…

Checks and Balances Are for Losers Trump has made it very clear that he will stop at nothing in 2025.

Question About Un-cashed Checks Over 6 months ago I went to an estate auction and bought 2k in goods. I and many other auction goers paid with personal checks. As of today the owner has not cashed anyone’s checks that I know. There was a whole behind the scenes argument between the beneficiary and the auction company, where she refused to take possession of the checks from the…

Guatemala City Airport yellow fever certificate checks. I will be visiting the west part of Panama before taking a bus to San Jose and flying to Guatemala City. I have the vaccine, but left the certificate at home (although do have a printout from my doctor showing the date and batch). Does Guatemala do checks. Most Central American countries exempt Panama (Costa Rica as an example), but can’t see an…

Since she has trouble budgeting, I pay her bills/debts from her paycheck and zelle her whatever money is remaining. Will there be any tax implications I need to worry about?
