I just got new service from Pacific Bell.  I chose to pay an $80
deposit rather than answer credit-application type questions.  They
claim they'll refund the deposit in one year, with 7% interest.  This
is a higher interest rate than any local bank money market account I
know of.  Too bad they won't take a bigger deposit! :-)
