New Menards card came yesterday in the mail, I don’t keep a balance on it like my Cabela’s card I pay them off and get the points back then. At 24% interest thats Mafia rates at best. LOL

So it did not have the usual sticker on the card with a 800 number to activate it, what it said I needed to do was download a app then give them my social security number, DOB and bank account number? Guess who can live without a Menards card now?

Why would a credit card need my bank account number that they won’t be getting? Companies cannot keep your info safe today why would I give them the whole package to get hacked no thanks.

The whole idea of a credit card in the past was to be a buffer for your bank account so connecting them together seems stupid in today’s environment so if they lose your bank info are they going to make good on it then?

Weird. My wife and I both recently got our new Menards cards and I had to call in to activate our cards.

I would sure show it to Menards customer service next time there. Sounds like a phishing scam and if not legit they might appreciate knowing about it. Have had other places very interested in following such fraud up.

No number to call just the website to sign in at that asked for the bank info it had a new card in the envelope it could be a elaborate scam, I burned the new card and my old one that I was going to get rid of anyways. I need to look up my last 4 digits on a old check and call to see what the deal is.

I called the customer service number and entered my card numbers last 4 numbers it did say they had sent me a card that should of arrived today but I went and canceled the card as that was my plan all along the bank info request just sealed that deal. They lost info in the past I cannot see handing them my personal info to lose it.

Lose it or not, no way should they get it. I’m sure in the fine print it was giving them electronic access to your account in case you didnt pay or something.

I got it. I activated it on website. Don't have to give your bank account # if you select not to get e pay. They made it kinda tricky. I still get bill in the mail.

If that's what it takes to get a credit card, I'm fine with just paying cash.
I got a cabela's card and a capital one card . And hardly use them.


Let me sugar coat this

LOL.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

My mask broke today as I walked into menards and they wouldn’t check me out at the register. As the dude stood behind a plexiglass shield and wore a mask of his own. Which I reminded him of. Told me I had to buy a mask or he wouldnt sell me the stuff I had. I told him to pound sand and let my wife pay for the goods. I was in the store for 45 min and saw multiple employees and nobody said a word.




I'm itchin' to see a coyote twitchin'.

More trappin' and less yappin'.
