It's beyond me how bank employes can be so complaacent about things like bank cards. You handed her your old card, and gave her your drivers liscense, what more do they want. Good for you for threatening to close your account. With the record profits that the banks are making, they should be bending over backwards for our business, not treating you like a criminal.
Kuddos to you my dear and :pottytrain1: to the people at the bankWe all need a little sunshine every now and then

PINs are amazingly easy to crack; most people use very common alpha-numeric sequencing for their PIN combination; ID's and bank cards are sold on the black market every minute; the buyers will have your PIN, and your bank account, emptied, in literally seconds.
(and if you think I'm making this up, Google it; there was just a major news article on PINs, their commonality, and how easily they are cracked, with or without running a computer program.)

It's everywhere, I work in transport and the day of the storm we had to call back our drivers for safety. When I explain to a US customer that we got 46 cm in one day and so on his reply was" you're acting like its the first time you see snow up there". Felt like telling him that the Mounty outside told us to go back to our igloos.

you should have just told him 2 feet, then he may have understood ...(he probably thought it was the equivalent of 2-3 inches)

Yeah, I'd agree with this if the SAME ID was required to deposit money-but anyone can deposit to any account with little or no ID. The bank's mandate seems to be to make customer service non-existent. They don 't make things easier for their customers to have access their own cash to purchase things elsewhere ... just harder. And it's unlikely that anyone could go in and change a pin without the old pin number.
One of the things that grinds my gears on this one is getting a cashier's cheque for a large purchase and the bank insisting on having the details before they issue it. As far as I am concerned... where and how MY money is spent is none of their business. The last time I ran into this we were paying for a renovation contract. We flat out refused to give the teller the Payee name. It made the transaction take ten times longer. Completely unnecessary and unethical on the bank's part. But their motive is to hold my money in deposit and continue earning interest on it by lending it to other people... so they make it difficult to withdraw by being intrusive in those kind of transactions.
In future, I will pay for these transactions with cash or credit and transfer funds via internet banking. I am cheering for the OP because none of us object to this kind of garbage enough. How did it get this way? There used to be a time when companies providing a service would bend over backwards to get my business and keep it. No more, those days are long gone. Business is so big now, so monolithic and competition free that the consumer has very little or no leverage to bring about a change in attitude or level of service. Every time I hear that a little guy has insisted they get the service they should have received as a matter of course win by threatening to withdraw their consumption from that particular company I get very excited. It's one more battle won for all of us!!!OOP: $3844.62 (fuel, food, household, health & beauty)

When you have days like that, it usually helps to get home at the end of it all and just laugh at how ridiculous it was. And to come on here and let it all out. I find this "Rant" section can be very therapeutical!
