<p>[QUOTE=&quot;benveniste, post: 2526138, member: 25547&quot;]A rating is only as trustworthy as the agency which gives it.&nbsp; UL defines what tests a safe has to pass to earn a TL-15 rating from them, and I would not consider anything which passes those tests as &quot;easy to break in to.&quot;&nbsp; But as we are all too aware of here, counterfeiting is a real problem, and a UL rating is not immune to such deception.&nbsp; UL even tells you who to call or email if you suspect a UL mark is spurious:</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <a href="http://www.ul.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/marapr2004.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ul.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/marapr2004.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.ul.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/marapr2004.pdf</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I think the discussion has done a pretty good job of talking about the pros and cons of a bank safety deposit box.&nbsp; Should you decide on a safety deposit box, insist on a copy of the agreement and read the damn thing before signing up.&nbsp; At least in the U.S. safety deposit boxes are becoming less and less popular each year, and more than a few banks are consolidating the service into a limited number of branches.&nbsp; Especially at larger banks fees are going up as well, as part of their continuing effort to squeeze the last dime out of any small customers who insist on banking with them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
