Your cheque is in the snail

Decided to get an online account with a company I'd been doing business with offline for years. Filled out the online form, got an email saying my info was being processed and they'd mail me a temporary password the next day

Maybe they think they're doing it for security reasons?

I'm sure that's true. But it brought out my inner ironist.

Same thing happens if you open an online bank account. In fact, you get two letters - one with the PIN and one with the account details. It must be an anti-internet scammer measure.

As I said to another reply, I'm sure that's true. But it brought out my inner ironist.

I know it's a security thing. This is an insurance company, and they'll do ANYTHING to avoid risk. But that doesn't mean we can't see the irony and grumble about it!

Yeah, it's a skeery world. And I'm sure the company sent it to me in the mail for security reasons. But, nevertheless, it brings out my inner ironist.
