Has anyone else noticed how nosey the internet banking staff are getting about instant online phone banking bank transfers ? Especially the younger ones. Im just answering their questions in a plite and friendly way, saying "its for a friend" or something like that. Rather than get all arsey and "none of your business" about it, which really is the case, and which I'm sure would be my fathers' response.
They shouldn't be asking customers what their transactions are for, should they ? Unless they suspect something illegal is occurring. In which case what powers do they have ? Im pretty sure they have no powers of interrogation, or a real jobsworth might follow the transaction trail. Buying bitcoins still remains legal so its not a worry at all, juat one more the way the climate of things seems to be changing.
Banks security measures are driving me even more fuckin insane thes days. Not only do you have your own user number, pswd, memorable name, memorable pin, and a whole raft of exurity questions, they jnow want you to recite numbers off YET ANOTHER FUCKIN PIN SYSTEM THEY HAVE RECENTLY STARTED. I cannot be arsed with it, and every time they ask for the 3rd didit of my new pin,m i say i havent got one, i njever got any letter about that,. ive had them send em about 4 letters so far. I wone=der how long this can keeep going on for. I might push it a few more times, then giovbe in, and just make a note of the neew fuckin pin.
its just the principle of the whole thing do they really need abouty 12 securityu steps and expect their customers to remember them all ? IMPOSSSSIBLE. So i have to write them all down now cos i have far too many internet wesite memberships with bankss and all sorts thats its impossible to remember it all.
in my verbose and rambling way im trying to say more securityu is less secure cos everyone will be writing the details down in a pa
d nect to their pc, and if that gets stolen then your severlely compromised up shit creek, without access to your bank account. They need to get the balance right. All of them. Just my one penneth of a harmless rant.
