Heh, that's the same company that sends physical mail to me every time I make a trade because they believe that email sent to my personal domain is "undeliverable" and automatically opt me out of e-statements no matter how many times I opt-back in. They have to be losing money on me by paying for so much postage at this point.

(And no, nothing is wrong with my email, it's hosted by a professional email host with the proper MX records and literally only Schwab claims to have this problem with me).

My college had a credit union with an ATM in the cafeteria. It was in your interest to keep enough money in the credit union to pay for lunch etc. while you were a student there.

When I graduated, I pulled the money back out. Apparently they issued the final interest payment after I'd emptied the account. For at least a year after that, I got monthly statements informing me that I had an account with less money in it than the postage on the statement.

Back in the 1970s, I lived for a while in Boston. I needed both Canadian and American accounts, for reasons. So I opened an account with the Boston branch of the Bank of Nova Scotia. Things worked ok for a while, and then I moved back to Canada. I withdrew the pittance I had in the account, and asked the bank staff to close the account. For the next two years or so, I got account statements, showing the glorious zero balance. I think it only stopped when I moved and didn't notify them of a forwarding address.

A different bank that I use will occasionally tell me that I'm about to be opted out of email because I haven't opened any of their mails and they don't think they're getting through. Which I assume is just because I have thunderbird set to not show remote images and that breaks their tracking.

Earlier this winter, I got a bunch of those letters completely out of the blue. I was also receiving emails from Schwab throughout the several weeks they were sending me a pile of letters saying they couldn't deliver emails to my address. Then the letters stopped.
