Just a checking from when I moved a few years back. So I don't really have that option of over draft protection. I dont have a CC connected with Wachovia, nor a Savings account.

Any check up to $500 they will cover, I can even go to an ATM if my bank account is empty and take that $500. Once I did, and replaced it when I got my paycheck, and the interest was only like $1.30. I don't trust anyone with direct withdrawal from my bank account. I've heard horror stories of gyms continuing to deduct money after people have ended their contract and it's a pain to get them to stop. Or if you have one of those credit cards that comes from your checking account and your card gets stolen, it's a hassle to refund the money.
