Hmm, I don't think I'm affected. I keep a close eye on my money.

How do they know you're a minority, neither of the banks I use asked me about that.

Probably made assumptions throughout.

-Sound & spelling of your name?
-Current residence location?
-Line of work and income?
-Once they run your name through ChexSystems, they can look at some of your financial movements (i.e. usage, what stores are patronized, overdraft fees, etc.)?

All bullshyt but I'm sure they make'em.

I used to work for Wells, what that article doesn't go into is managements role in that happening. They created a culture where people pretty much had to do shady stuff to even stay there. I actually jumped banks for the sole purpose of thier sales goals and how ridiculously high they were.

You show up on a Friday morning and get told you have to have 2 approved credit cards by the end of the day knowing if you don't they're gonna make your life a living hell. It's not right, but I understood what people were doing. Wells removed the human part out of what they were doing and everything became a goal or a number. Employees in return started treated people that way.

When your bank makes your employees refer to the branches as a "store" (i.e.; "hey which store do you work at?") that tells you a lot about what they were trying to accomplish against thier clients or as they called them "customers". Target don't even call the people who shop there "customers"

I've worked in both call centers (credit) and brick & mortars (liquid assets) and this shyt resonates. When I realized that I was essentially selling debt (false dreams) to people who shouldn't make these certain "life-changing" transactions with the goal of increasing my own paycheck by not even 1%, I had to:camby:. My morals couldn't let me continue in that world.
