I guess I could pull funds from my BB account to pay my credit card bill (instead of pushing the funds from BB to my credit card account) - is that less risky than transferring money from BB to my regular bank account?
I am not so hot on that idea.
The reason people use BB is that they don't have a regular bank account. All you need to do is add one to your BB account and some rat may start gnawing on your history wondering why you have a BB account.
I think it would be better just to order checks. They come in about a week, so if worse comes to worse, pay your account out of some other source and then refund it from BB if time is that short.
If it isn't, then just use a check when they come and pay the bill or yourself.
