Per the representative that I spoke with, they did not reach out to us, though they should have, but given it was a holiday weekend, they might not have had enough people to contact me. \u00a0That’s your excuse? \u00a0Security is as time permits operation. \u00a0But, looking at the history of our account…<\/p>\n\n- One time: maybe<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n

After the third time of this sequence of events happening, it is not a mistake, it is a trend!<\/p>\n
I have been a customer with Associated for 20+ years and I think it is time to look at my other options. Something is definitely broke in their process and I have had enough! \u00a0And to make it even more interesting, thinking a Credit Union because… why not!<\/p>\n

We will be reviewing some options and finding one that suits our needs… \u00a0Time to go “bank” shopping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Well, as I wrote about before (see\u00a0Credit Card Fraud via Email post) we have had continuing issues with our debit card. \u00a0Now, I know, and I as I have been told by multiple people from various banking institutions, it is a sad fact of modern life that credit\/debit cards are used fraudulently very frequently, but […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":92,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/192.168.68.73\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
