For regular bills, when adding a bill pay account online, the bank will ask for your account number... so there must be some way to specify that with an ACH transaction. I've noticed that the custom input memo field visible to the end

In the US, AFAIK the only metadata you get with a direct / ACH deposit is the sender's "name", usually the company name. I assume that you can't easily change this per transaction. US banking infrastructure is deca

Such an error would be immediately obvious on code review. The idea is to make it obvious, not foolproof.

As someone in a comparable situation, I would have skipped the 5-7 years it takes to be considered "or equivalent experience". I don't speak for OP though. (That said, I also paid off what little student loans I had much quic

FWIW you can turn off historical recording of e.g. voice activity on the Activity Controls section of the Google My Activity page, along with a bunch of other things.

In a lot of situations where a contract like that comes to court, the company will try to convince the judge to simply reduce the scope of the contract to whatever seems reasonable to them - and this can succeed. (Of course if you're i

It's mostly so they can later say that you were fired "for cause" so they can e.g. fight unemployment compensation. It's also a legal defense to a claim of unfair dismissal.

Not sure if the voice generation is actually happening on the phone but Call Screen is not conferencing in anyone AFAIK. It's pretty seamless. You get an automatic transcription interface to see what the caller is saying in real time

In some ways Canada is like the US (e.g. use of checks) but in others they are like Mexico / Europe (Interac, i.e. PIN-based payments, email money transfers).

Yup, it's a problem. Checks are way more frequently used in the US than they are in Europe, and all you need to create a forged check in the US is someone's name, address, routing, and account numbers. (Theoretically they'r

ACH, once initiated, usually happens overnight in my experience (which matches up with my understanding that they are largely settled internally by a big overnight batch job). Is this incorrect?
