[QUOTE="ProPilot, post: 1750035, member: 24055"]If you don't have a business account, communication with your bank is the key. Get with the manager of your local branch, tell him or her you are OTR and will have unusual charges (my bank calls it a "positional issue") - based on the irregular pattern of charging/ATM use in different areas of the country at different times. You also need to tell them if you are buying fuel - large transactional amounts in different areas will also trigger a security alert. In addition to noting your account of these facts, if it's a debit card, most banks will agree to increase your per-day charging limit and cash withdrawal limit for a period of time, provided your deposits are timely and you have no overdrafts. Most banks are ignorant of the needs of OTR drivers; not really their fault but YOU need to educate them - I did, and I've had no problems....[/QUOTE]
