Spent I was able to put a id alert on my account and there for it was told I had a card that I wouldnt have gotten checks I wasnt aware they used cards so I thought I would be waiting. For checks but throng came out mails boxs at the time where all free air open and can be taken or go thur till I bought an XXXX servitude mail box with a key for all the units that u could afford at the time just so if I where to get.
