Im starting to reallllyy hate payment methods. (ANOTHER RANT)

Okay, It seems I cant get ANY online games which require a monthly payment plan.. for one reason.. I LACK CREDIT CARDS AND CHECKING ACCOUNTS! arg.. HAvent these companies ever heard of mail orders?.. I mean I used to have AOL until I had to get rid of it.. guess why.. THEY NO LONGER TOOK MAIL ORDERS! I know a lot of people have checking accounts and credit cards, but companies should seriously look out for the minority.. New Egg does.. thats the only online parts place I am able to buy from as well.. due to.. mail orders!.. Its horrible how the world is becoming, anyone else in my same situation? The.. High schooler without a job.. without credit, and without money thing? I could pay the 15 dollars a month gaming fees, but I cannot pay the 500 dollars it takes to keep a checking account open!.. And iv tried getting credit.. "Not enough credit history" is the response I get.. IM TRYING TO GET YOUR CARD SO I CAN GET CREDIT HISTORY! GOSH!.. .. eeee.. I love ranting on here!...

lol having a job means you have money but i still cant pay for stuff like that due to no credit card or having enough good credit.

1. Open a savings account at a local credit union.
2. Get a debit card which is attached to the savings account.

No credit history required, no $500 minimum balance problems either.

as far as I know, most banks will allow you to have as little as 1$ in a checking account.....

saving accounts on the other hand.... if I dont keep at least 300$ in mine(not saying this is every banks policy), i get hit with a monthly fee. (very small, but still seriously lame...)

So go put a few bucks in a checking account and apply for the banks cc. (probably the easiest cc to get)You'll get a crappy apr at first, but as long as you pay at least the minimum ammount, you'll start to get CC offers up the you know what. I get probably 10-15 a week, its rediculous....

Then you wont have any problem ordering stuff and paying for games.

At our bank, there's a type of checking account you can get that doesn't have a $500 minimum limit. As for your bank, you should do some research on that. If they require the $500, then they suck as a bank anyway.

But yeah, I know I only have 98 cents in my checking account right now, and my bank doesn't have a problem with it.
