Just spent a frustrating 10 minutes on the phone with my bank.  I think it's

time to change banks.  They said in every possible combinations of words 
that it would be my decision to provide someone with my acct numbers - and 
the bank would have no responsibility about what happens.  I said everyone 
who I write a check to has the same info.  They said the person getting the 
check wouldn't know they were getting bank acct info as it could be a 
different kind of check such as a credit card check for instance.  What BS.

Sounds crazy to me - all I wanted was a confirmation that no one could 
withdraw funds if they had my bank rounting and acct number.  I believe 
Brian but wanted to hear the bank say the same thing.

Just called the International Dept and they were a little more helpful. 
But, MAN!  Those nitwits at the local branch were pissing me off! Sorry -
