I migrated this blog in early February – now we’ve reached early April and the comment spam has noticed me. Here’s hoping that WordPress comment spam features work better than Bloglines.
In alternative news, there’s an amusing tale at theDailyWTF referring to security at the Halifax.
Not too long ago, my HalifaxATM card got deactivated because I misentered the PIN number three times in a row. So, the next day, I went into the main bank branch to get some cash from a teller.
I headed to the counter with my card in hand and some ID in my pocket. I explained the situation and asked to withdraw a few hundred pounds to carry me over until a new PIN number arrived. After taking my ATM card, she handed me a slip and asked me to sign. I did that, and she then counted out the money and gave it to me. No questions asked.
I’ve thought before that Halifax customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe this will spur me on to open an account somewhere else.
