It was extremely hard to get their attention through normal lawyer-type means -- finding a phone or fax number or even an email address on their website was a huge chore. When I finally found and got the attention of the "responsible individuals," though, they cratered instantly -- became very cooperative, almost obsequiously so. They were just in the process of being acquired by eBay at that time, and I don't know how that corporate culture conflict has played out.

I'm considering closing my account, but they don't seem to have a form for that. If I withdraw what I've got, the account's still there. Maybe they close inactive accounts after a while. It was a really great idea - but I don't need a nanny for a banker. I have only a small balance, and don’t use it very often.
