Thanks. I’m still having a hard time figuring out the virtual card stuff.

Third attempt.

Is this working now?

Or let me know if I’m still missing something.

Anyway, I'll be getting those $42 for my mobile data soon.

ironcyclist58 said:Shoot me a DM here on the forum. But honestly, just make sure you knock out those three transactions for at least $8.25 before the deadline hits.

Well, I already knocked out two of them on the same day.
Sent them to my Chime account.
Is that not what counts???

ironcyclist58 said:Are you E. A. Poe? You haven't even cleared three transactions yet. Also, I need you to send over your Venmo ID so I can get that money to you.

How am I supposed to find you? Where do I even send it?
I don't have any info other than the name I saw on the invite.

I signed up through your link, but I haven't received anything yet. What gives?

Thanks.

Why don't JPMorgan Chase or RF Bank require phone call verification through their apps???

What you're actually consenting to here is allowing the app to pull directly from your contact list to dial Zabine numbers—things like their general info line, business services, or the credit department, and so on.

btw merry Christmas

What exactly does it say?

Grant permission for mzaba to handle phone calls.

Is anyone mentioning contact numbers for Chase or anything regarding phone calls in general around here?
It's obvious we're talking about ALL phone calls.

Before they actually activate your account, you have to give the app permission to manage your phone calls. In plain English, that means they’re listening to your conversations.

-Previously, their voicemail would insist they were collecting data per legal requirements—claiming you had to visit a branch in person, and so on...
Now, that excuse is gone. It’s just a standard voicemail message.

When you arrive at the branch, make it immediately clear that you have no intention of discussing your private life.
Shut down those inquiries right away.
If they claim they need to "consult someone," simply threaten to close all your accounts.

Demand free checking and online banking—be a bit difficult about it.
They offer us 0% interest on savings, yet they have the audacity to charge fees for online access and monthly maintenance.

So, I actually went in—and I'm telling you, being aggressive pays off.👍
I walked straight into the Chase branch and started complaining from the get-go—asking why I even needed to show up when they could handle this remotely... the teller told me to wait, but I just sat down without waiting for permission.
She was staring at me, probably thinking 🤔 but she ended up handling everything herself, even though I didn't have all my paperwork ready.
I didn't answer any of their mindless questions; I just signed the forms... being difficult really does work. 🙂

What exactly did you sign?

I had the whole thing completely free.
The trial ended and now they're trying to charge me about $20 a month.

I told them straight up I wasn't paying and gave them a little attitude.
"No way, I'm not paying." I raised my voice a bit.
She just stared at the screen and then handed me another 6 months for free.
That's how you deal with them.

You just have to threaten to cancel all your services.

Laura Chavez93 said:I have some business to attend to at Bank of America in the coming days—essentially a bit of my own "police investigation"—so I suppose I will just ask them directly if they intend to continue with such nonsense...

-They used to have a message on their voicemail saying they collect data according to the law and that you had to come in person, etc., etc.
Now that's gone. Not even on the automated line.

When you get there, make it clear right away that you aren't interested in discussing your private life.
Shut them down immediately.
If they claim they have to ask questions, threaten to close all your accounts.

Ask for free checking and online banking—don't be afraid to haggle a bit.
They offer us 0% interest on savings, yet they still charge us fees for online access, account maintenance, and all that junk.

Edward Evans7 said:They’re asking because they don't want to issue you a nice, easy credit line, an overdraft, or a credit card, only for you to hop on a plane to Germany and leave them holding the bag while they try to collect a debt from someone halfway across the world.

Legally, they can't just trade your client data around without your consent—unless, of course, you’re dealing with banks within the same massive conglomerate. You know, like if you have accounts at both Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase, or maybe Goldman Sachs and another branch under the same parent group.
I can't say for certain how much those corporate groups share internally.

-That's what I figured. Thanks for the answer.

👍

Laura Chavez93 said:And why don't you just ask them yourself?
As in... "Why would you even ask me that?"

I should have.

-Does anyone know why bankers are so obsessed with whether you have an account abroad or if you're planning to move overseas? Or if you hold dual citizenship?

And do they care if I have an account at another bank here in the States?
If I actually tell them, are they going to swap data with that other bank behind my back?

I’ve just noticed they ask this all the time at the teller window.
