Competition in banking?? Wow, this is great!
Apr 28, 2003 ctishman link
Yes! Competition is good for the consumer!

Yup ... Competition is good. Unlike the other bank, I don't care if you have an account with him or not. I won't attack you if you switch to SF's bank or open an account with both him and me. :) Nor will I attempt to pirate the other bank at all.

After several fixes and updates the FVIB 2.0 system is now in place. To open an account talk to one of these chars. and only these chars.

StarFreeze
Bank(Blue)
Bank(Red)
Bank(Gold)
Bank(Vault)

For current rates here is where to look fvib.starfreeze.com :)

Some new things in 2.0.
-Savings account: Hold more money than normal but have lower rates

-Premium Status: Costs 100k/Month which means for 30 days you will be able to store higher amounts of money in both savings and normal, you can have 2 cds 1 100k and 1 50k(while non-premium can only have 1), no withdrawal fees(unlike non-premium).

-Online webservice: You can upgrade to premium when ever you want. Transfer money between normal and savings account or to ANY person who has a bank account :).
You can bet on duels which will soon be occuring. Just know this if you bet on the wrong person and lose the money, don't come crying to me :)

Guild Accounts: Hold up to 5mil dollars. Leader and co-leader how ever you like to do it will have access to the account to use "transfer money" command to hand out money when needed to the people who all have bank accounts.

Rules/other info to remember:

You can only have 1 account! If you are caught cheating the bank both accounts will be fined and in most cases you will lose any money you have in both.

If you buy a cd while in non-premium status, if you upgrade the cd will not.

If confused about where to put your money just ask, I will make sure you get the most out of your money that you put into the bank.

StarFreeze and the bank are seperate for the most part other than the fact that I'm the person who runs it. If you kill StarFreeze or any of my other chars. it WILL NOT affect your account. This question was brought up by a few people, due to the remberance of the problems when the bank just first started out way back in 2002. I admit there were times when the bank in 3.1 had these issues. I can assure you this will NEVER happen again.

ANY one can have a bank account. Even those pirates named Icarus :)

Bank IRC Channel is #vendetta-bank

Thats all hope you open an account :)

Ohh yea, due to so many people asking and opening up bank accounts, it's hard to open these accounts when I'm spammed with 10 ppl asking for info. Slow down take your time, just ask me when it comes time for making your account.

One last thing, Thank Romirez for all the work he put into the new 2.0 bank system.

Wow!

StarFreeze, you are doing a great service to the Vendetta community.

I look forward to re-opening my account with you soon (I'm at work now).

Just an FYI for everyone, a new bank the FVNB will be opening this week offering competitive rates and new products for all Vendetta players. I look forward to providing these services to everyone.
Apr 28, 2003 furball link
Well Renegade, I can't speak for SF's bank but as far as I am concerned, yes you can have accounts in both banks. Now, HE may not allow that... but you'll have to ask him about that.

I'm thinking of doing something money wise, not a bank though, thats way over my head.
But it does involve money.
Apr 28, 2003 HumpyThePenguin link
Mabye I can finance this Lem?
/me has piles o' money

BankBot... BankBot... BankBot... Is it there yet?
Apr 29, 2003 StarFreeze link
Bankbot: Yes there is but it hasn't been upgraded to 2.0.

Now I've got several asking for the guild accounts. Well this is how a guild account is gonna work for the most part. The leader of guild(and/or maybe even the treasurer) will have access to the account online so that they can use the "transfer money" option to hand out salaries or have people even send money into the bank guild account this way. Since all the bank will be doing is holding onto the money, I don't have to worry about checking to see if the person who needs money is part of the guild.
