Thu, 2 Aug 2001 14:28:14 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tlknapp - I set up an account with X.Com not long after they opened, and I regret it to this day. Please hang with me here ... it's a long story.

Tue, 27 Mar 2001 13:38:53 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author se33176 - I really thought this was a good idea: an internet bank presumably backed up by a real, brick & mortar institution. The $20.00 sign-up bonus was nice also.
