statement balance at the bank; never more than $500. I pay in cash, not that the amount matters. Every time, no matter what branch I'm at, the teller insists that I write down my ssn, telephone no. and occupation. After they're done, they give it back to me; they keep no records of them. I finally got tired of it, and the last several times I indicated that my occupation was "gigolo". Only one teller asked me what it was and I said that I "mooch off of women". No repercussions ever resulted. Does your bank, or do your banks, have any stupid policy or policies?

The banks here ask for photo I.D. in some circumstances. They don't need to ask for a Social Insurance Number because all banks and credit unions here, have had them on file for decades. The privacy laws are making things more secure but also creating havoc for some institutions such as banks, health care facilities, pharmacies, etc.

No problems at my bank at all. Your bank has no right to demand your SS#. It really shouldn't matter one bit who pays the bill.

When I deposit cash to my son's account, of which I am not a co-owner, all I need is the account number. Who I am doesn't matter at all.
Clonge, your ATM could be connected to your credit card if you got it through your bank. You could make your payment at the ATM machine, just rounding up your payment to the next dollar.
