It annoys me when someone calls me and then asks "security questions" to establish who I am. They sometimes get really stroppy when I ask them, as an unknown caller, to prove who they are. They don't seem to have thought these issues through.
I had that this week with Nationwide paying the car tax online
Used my Nationwide Credit Card and DVLA said declined
Used another card & straight through
Next minute Nationwide on the phone asking me to prove it was me
Went through the rigmarole of me saying who were they and why should I answer their security questions to an unverified call[emoji85]
Rang back number on back of card and went through loads of ‘press 1, press 2’ options
Finally spoke to a lass and she confirmed they declined it because they thought it was suspect and couldn’t lift the stop
I said what was the point of having their card - she couldn’t think of an answer [emoji85][emoji35]
