I lost my job in October 2006 and suffered a great income loss was making 130k yr. I have been looking for work but was not even coming close to my previous salary. My checking accounts at BOA, Wachovia, Compass Bank all took a beating and all 3 eventually closed and was reported to chexsystems. My credit has been destroyed losing my house and truck. I have had 3 jobs since and have to use different check cashing places to cash my checks. I finally landed a job this month with my income back to where I was. Only problem is my employer requires direct deposit. I have been in a panic state since accepting the job. I started looking around on the internet for a source for direct deposit and discovered this site. I decided to give TAB Bank a try after reading about them on this site. I faxed an application Monday 11/26 about 3pm. I called them Tues about 11am to see if they recieved my fax and to my suprise the lady said they just sent a letter to me saying they couldn't verifiy my identity. I was prepared to hear "sorry we cant help you". To my suprise she put my on hold came back and said I need to ask you some questions. I answered about 5 multiple choice questions only I would know, after the last one she said .."OK we are all set. How would you like to fund your account". I freaked out and said humm can I call you back? I was caught off guard. I asked about the account she was very helpful gave me my account # for the checking account and said I could fund it with $25 or she encouraged direct deposit. We went through how to order checks and my Mastercard check card. All I want to say is THANKS for keeping up with this site, you guys have given me hope again!

Thank you
