In many cases when you give a deposit for something, the recipient has to give you interest when they return it. Eg, when you pay first and last month's rent, your landlord has to pay you 6% annually on that deposit.
Is the same true for a phone company? I'm going to ask for my $200 deposit back from Bell tomorrow since it's been more than 6 months since I signed up and they haven't offered to give it back yet as they said they would.
At 6% annually that's only $6, but I want to ask them for it just out of principle since they're bastards who hold on to your money, making interest off it, until you ask for it back. I mean they're a phone company, not a bank!
So should I demand my $6?
