Really?!?

Ok, I work at a bank. I just had a customer who got mad that I asked for her ID. She said she goes to the other location all the time and they know her, so why does she have to show her ID to cash checks? I told her it was for her protection. She got mad. I told her she could speak to a banker about putting something on her account saying not to ask for ID, but that wouldn't be very secure if someone got ahold of her account number. She's like, "Well, if someone did that, and you cashed it, that would be your fault. I shouldn't have to show my ID!"

Ok, um, really???

Tell her to get direct deposit.

Ignore her, she is dumb.

Did she end up showing her ID ?

I work at a bank and I am appalled at the idiocy of some people when it comes to their finances.

Wow.

I'm a regular at my bank and they know me by name. They still make me show ID when I cash checks. If they didn't, I would be not happy.

People are crazy. I used to work at a bank and dealt with his all the time. It was awful when I was new because I didn't know the regular customers, and they would get an attitude when I asked for ID. I don't understand why people get so defensive about it. It's for their own protection.

I feel like you're living in an episode of Hardcore Pawn. I've learned that the fine citizens of Detroits 8-Mile do not carry ID with them.

Awesome.

Seriously, bank customers are the WORST. I hated every second I worked there.

One of the best things about being a SAHM is that I don't have to deal with people if I don't want to. They are dumb.

Yes, I did finally get her ID. She wasn't happy, and she didn't have time to see a banker to put a note on her account, but I don't think they would have anyway.

People are so dumb sometimes.

I worked at a bank briefly and was horrified at how stupid people were with finances. They wanted us to just "know" them there as well. Ummm, it's a major bank and we're located in lower Manhattan. Yes, we knew a few regulars at our branch, but we saw a huge number of people per hours and had 9 f/t tellers and still would get long lines. Nobody got preferential treatment because the risk was too high!
