Yeah, HUGE problems with amazon payments and also fido. Amazon payments is basically treated as cash if you can't provide a valid business reason for it. If you comingle funds into a bank account that cannot be traced back (cash, money orders probably), there are big issues. I had to explain why there was so much/many "cash/cash advances" into the account. The guy said my account was the craziest he's seen in 25 years, even tho I'm nowhere near Marathon Man and others on here. 4x25k for fido for wife, 2x25k fido for me, plus 2-3k in AP the month in question.

Basically if you want to do anything like this, AP, Venmo, Fidelity, etc...it is better to have a seperate bank account that they don't look at so you'll never have to explain anything or run into problems.
