The person above me is absoulutely correct about how it's handled in U.S.  After the owner cannot be located for (usually) two years, the box goes to the state.\n\nI found this link that will hopefully help you find what you're looking for in Canada.  If this link isn't helpful, just do a search for Unclaimed Property in Canada and keep hitting results until you find what you need.\n\nhttp://www.cuar.ca/index.php

I would give it back as much as I'd like to keep it.  Reason one is to keep myself from getting caught and getting into trouble and as much of a humanitarian as I'd like to think I'm NOT, everyone makes mistakes and I wouldn't want the teller to lose his/her job over it...unless they were nasty to me then it's a free-for-all.

Stop going to that certain teller.  Or yah, change banks if they force you to do something that is obviously not what the corporate office wants cuz they are the ones who make up their own deposit slips or it's the pre-made ones in your checkbook.  Either way, each field has a function.  Fill it out anyhow and if they wont accept your deposit, why would you want to deposit there?

Substantial security deposit or a guaranty by someone with a very good credit rating. This assumes you do not have a criminal record.

This is usually how the scam works:  After the check is deposited, the bank will tell you the check has "cleared."  He will then ask you to send a check to him for the amount.  Then the original check will bounce, and you will be out the money.  See this link for an example.  \n\nChecks that have "cleared" can still bounce.

Was the deposit in cash?  If it was a check or money order, obviously you could present the cancelled item for verification of the correct amount.  Good luck.  You would think that the stamp in the passbook, which the bank entered, would be as good as a receipt, but I don't know for certain.  Actually, I didn't know they still issued passbooks.

A lock box is simply a metal box with a simple lock on it.\n\nIn a bank you will find Safety Deposit boxes.  These boxes you rent and they often contain a lock box to store your valuables.  The only access to the Safety Deposit Box is a key the bank holds and a second key they give to you.  Both keys are needed to unlock the Safety Deposit Box.\n\nI hope this helps a bit!\n\nJeffrey

no they cant ask for additional deposits if you have a lease sounds to me like someone is scamming you ,call the head office and ask for owner or the person under him let him no what the manager is doing ,you can also go to the library and get a book called The Landlord and Tenant Book it has a lot of interesting things in it

The bank is not responsible to make sure that funds are available. It is the depositors responsibilty. The best that can be done is to talk to the bank that the check was drawn on to find out if funds are available to cover it, and of course, sue the writer of the check.

No way.\n\nThis situation would fall under the fair credit reporting act.  No financial institution is allowed to release info like that without your express written consent.\n\nThe only info they can release legally, is to tell someone if your account has enough funds to cover a check you wrote.  And this would be a simple, yes or no answer.\n\nYou could file a complaint with your state attorney general, but I would believe that both your boss and his banking friend would deny it happened.\n\nIf I were in your shoes, I would close down my account, and after I have opened a new account, send a letter to the VP telling him exactly why you moved your banking.

you get a secured loan where the bank holds your deposit for security ,  in case you don't pay it .  then they will take your monies in your deposit.

They can give no notice - they just don't get their deposit back. \n\nThe purpose of the deposit is to cover the costs you that will be incurred as a result of the short notice vacancy.

I work for a shipping company and deal with this all the time, so I hope this helps:\nUsually, you have to insure it for the amount that it is worth. If you did that and it broke, then the sender or the recipient files a claim. normally, they will send someone to inspect the item and the packaging and declare if it was "sufficiently packaged". If they say no, then you will not get your claim. if they say that it was, then the claim will be approved, and whoever filed it will have to fill out the paperwork and send it back. normally, a check will be sent to the person who files the claim in about 3 weeks.\n\nI hope this helps with understanding the process. I deal with this on a weekly basis, and i honestly feel that they make it hard so that a majority of people will not go through with it.\n\nPS. If you are having trouble getting in touch with an operator when you call 1-800-GO-FEDEX, when it first says "welcome to fedex", press zero. It will then say, "ok, so i can direct you...blah, blah, blah", press zero again. this bypasses all the menus!

You apartment manager is responsible for the safety of the unit - you are responsible for your items inside of it.  I would suggest getting renters insuarance.  That will protect your items from flood damage, theft, etc.\n\nGood for you for thinking and planning ahead!

The bottom line is, did you take it or not? If not, then there can be nothing on the tape that will cause you any concern. As soon as this charge was made, you should have contacted a lawyer. You have several options here, and you really need a lawyer to do this for you. You can sue for recovery of lost wages. Sue for defamation of character. And sue for punative damages. \nDon't worry about the manager who opened the safe. That's not part of your concern. All you have to be clear on is the fact that you did not take the money. Tell your lawyer about the security cameras and he can insist on a viewing. \nGood luck!

Typically you have to give one "period" notice if there is no formal contract. If you paid by the week then you need to give a weeks notice. If by the month, then unfortunately you need to give a months notice.\n\nYou don't actually "lose a deposit". What happens is that it goes to pay the number of days you did not give a notice. If there is money left over then you get it back. If say you gave a 10 day notice then you would only owe 20 days. \n\nMost likely there won't be much left though, if any. \n\nIf there is nothing left then all you can do is chalk it up to experience.

You should insure the package for what you think that it is worth if it gets lost.  Thank you for your question.
