Hi Folks,
They both asked me to confirm personnal information about myself (D.O.B.). I refused both times on the grounds that they could be fraudsters trying it on.
Play them at their own game, when they call tell them that you will not answer them until they answer your security questions, and if they don't answer them correctly the call will be terminated.
Questions to Ask
1/ Your date of birth
2/ The first line of your address
3/ Your middle name
They will not give you the answers as they say it is sensitive information, so very politely tell them
"You have failed to answer my security questions, so I can not confirm who you are, so I am terminating this call" and terminate it.
I tend to agree with Mr Earl.
Hello,
This all seems very silly, to be quite honest. Perhaps your Bank is calling you about something important, to you and you will hang up on them....
Why not put your concerns in writting to your Banks, everyone - if enough people feel the same way, perhaps the Banks will change their practices, or even make individual arrangments to ask a security question specifically agreed with each of you.
Regards
Mr. Earl.
ps - no, I don't work for a Bank before anyone asks.
