So why not just give a physical address? Its not a secret. Your address as well as your past addresses, are easily available in an on line search to anyone who cares to know. All that is needed is your name, state and estimated age. Your address tells nothing about your net worth.

To open an account, you have to give them your social security as well. That is the more critical item for privacy. If I trust somebody enough to give them my SSN, I wouldn't worry too much about physical address. But that is just me.

Also, you deposited a "3-figure amount"? Do they even sell CD's that small? That must be a typo.

But I'm glad you finally got your money back. Now just go onto your fidelity or vanguard account and buy a CD painlessly at a rate that will no doubt exceed pnc. You wont need a cashiers check, just transfer the money electronically.
