An 'old' friend and Youth Ministry guru, Steve Tilley has a wonderfully whimsical blog... this has to be one of the best posts I have ever read :-)
Handy Hint 476
Next time your bank telephones you, try this:
Hello, thanks for calling. Before I proceed with this call I'd like to ask you some security questions to check you are who you say you are. What is the address and telehone number of your branch in (place where you live)?
What colour is the front door?
What shop is immediately to the left?
Go on. Strike a mighty blow for local banking.
I especially love it because my bank is the bank that advertises about how it retains a local branch structure... yet... my branch is now either a) a PO box and/or b) a Pizza restaurant! ...and when we have talked to them about moving to a more local branch the advice has been "Don't bother, all services are centralised anyway, so there is no point!"
