Go to the bank today to cash some checks.
Been doing this for years.
Endorse the back and I always write my account number on one of the checks.
They all know me.
In fact, I always toss a handful of Atomic Fireballs in with the checks - they get a kick out of that and I know they never get anything like that from other bank customers. I never get asked for my ID - because they all know me.
Today - they say they need to send me a text. OK - I get out my phone. No text. They ask for my number - which I give them over the speaker phone (so everyone else can hear it). I'm in the drive-in. Then I get a message I do not understand at all. I thought I would get a code. But what they want is my debit card PIN. I tell them I don't use my debit card (which I don't) and don't remember the PIN. They tell me OK we will have to bypass it.
I get my cash plus a pile of red lollipops and am on my way.
The slogan of the bank?
