[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 466959, member: 6705"] I'd forgotten about the running, and I didn't make the connection that you'd already said "no". Which changes my answer entirely. Also - debit cards - CAN be overdrafted. been there done that myself. And the prepaid Visa Buxx cards - attached to a bank account - CAN be overdrafted as well. been there done that with Onyxx. It actually was NOT her fault; the number was used at a [I]vending machine[/I] (?!) 800 miles away... Um. And, she had the card - she gave it to me. So I'm thinking something was very, very weird there. When I started working, I put my paycheck into my custodial account - had my parents' names on it too. I had no checks to write. However, I could and did make withdrawals without their signature. Small amounts, because they kept tabs on it. I never withdrew more than I put in - I was terrified they'd find out. Of course, that's closer to easy child than difficult child. But... I [I]still[/I] didn't learn my lesson with money and had to be bailed out in my freshman year of college. And bankruptcy several years after that. So... Now, of course, I'm much better with money. THANK HEAVENS! [/QUOTE]
