Attorney General Schneiderman proposed the Payroll Card Act last year,
when he looked into the matter, and found that many payroll card
programs charge fees for all ATM withdrawals and point-of-sale
transactions. 75% of the employees at 38 local and national companies
that contributed data to Schneiderman's study, including Wal-Mart,
McDonald's, and Walgreens, were charged fees while attempting to access
their wages.


Yet another reason to avoid businesses that make Simon LeGree look like
Mother Theresa. The people who haven't figured out how to open a
checking account don't help either.

When my employer figured out how to do direct deposit after about 20
years most people were happy. I do miss walking two blocks to the bank
to deposit my check though -- Winter was kinda cute. I never did get up
the courage to ask why her parents named her Winter or if she had a
sister called Summer.
