Last month the bank forces on me an aditional 3 letter code which I cannot choose, in order to be able to extract money. So I go ask the bank manager why are they complicating my life : - It's for your safety, if somebody gets hold of your 4 digit code you still have the 3 letter code. - But if someone gets my 4 digit code he will surely get the 3 letter code, why should it be safer? - Errr... it's for your safety. - So why can't I choose the 3 letter code? I won't remember it and surely loose the paper the ATM gave me and then it'll surely be red tape hell to get it back again.
- Nothing we can do, not in our hands. So PLEASE tell me the bank people who think adding this code makes me safe are not handling my data! Please tell me people who think enhancing security is piling one code after another are not handling my data. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
