FREE CHECK CASHING

Paychecks can be cashed free at the Huntington Bank.

1. Go to the Huntington Bank on the corner of Routes. 53 & 163 in the Catawba/Port Clinton area with your payroll check and the 'Check Cashing Privileges' card from Shirley Stary.

2. Endorse the back side of your check.

3. Your valid driver's license and this 'privileges' card will entitle you to cash your payroll check ONLY without a fee. All musicians' names willl be on a list for the teller to check. Ask for the manager, Tracy Kilpatrick, if you have any problems.

FREE DEPOSITING OF CHECK AT ANY ATM

Paychecks can be deposited into your bank account by using your bank Debit Card.

1. Endorse the back side of your check.

2. Put check into a bank envelope.

3. Fill out the amount of each check and the total deposited on the envelope, and the name of your banking institution. (Your banking institution must use one of the same money networks as is accepted by the depositing bank. These are Pulse; Plus; Star; Money Station and several others. This network will electronically update your balance with the deposit.)

4. Go to the ATM at the bank.

5. Use your bank Debit Card, plus pin number, to deposit your check to your checking account. (There is no bank charge for deposits).

GETTING CASH

1. Go to a merchant that uses Master Card or VISA Debit Cards (Wal-Mart, Bassett's, Rite-Aid and others.)

2. Purchase merchandise or service.

3. Use your Debit Card to pay for the merchandise and ask for cash back. Depending on the store policy, you will be able to draw out funds to the balance of your account. (Some card machines show you can take out even amounts, such as, $20, $40, $60, $100 and no bank charge is made for this service.)

4. Debit Cards electronically update balances as the card data is transmitted.
