Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Sox, threaten them with filing a complaint to the governing regulatory agency. It's either going to be the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency or the FDIC.

Even though NIHFCU is based in the DC area, there's a network of CU Service Centers (around 4,000 I think) across the country that will allow you to bank in person if necessary. I've never had a lick of trouble with them, and I've been a member since 1993 or '94.

This. I've left voicemails with trigger words. They have until Monday to phone me back, then I'm escalating to the next management level.

Seriously, I'm Inigo Montoya now. "HELLO! My Name is Inigo Montoya! You forked with my bank account. Prepare to die."

OMG Sox.

You may want to go open new accts somewhere tomorrow (are banks open on Saturdays) to prime them for you transferring all your stuff over. It can take a couple of days to get your cards and online access, etc.

It's going to take a bit longer than a weekend, given the shenanigans. I am so pissed, though I'm glad I know what happened, have a name to bandy about as the responsible party, and a good handle on what happened.

Thank goodness for Trader Joes Pirate Booty. It got nommed.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Woo to the hoo, Maria!!

I'm not caught up in Natter, so I don't know what's happening exactly, but GIT 'EM, SOX. And I also love credit unions.

Maria, that is fantastic news!

I'm running a little behind, too, so I know not of Sox trauma, other than to say, GO CUs!

Sox,

I just meant you may want to open up accts in a new place ASAP so you can be ready to bail as soon as you need to.

I'm with Maria about escalating it to a manager, but you might need to write the corporate overlords by the time this is finished.

OCC really helped when a certain person I know had to write them to complain about his mother opening up a credit card in his name, maxing out such card (I don't now know if it was 1 or 2 cards) and then not paying the bill.

Yes. That was a low point in the mother-son relationship.

I want to shout it to the boards, but since it seems to involve employee bank fraud, I'm fielding questions in email.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Yikes, Sox. Good luck getting it all straightened out.
