When I closed out my account at BofA a few years ago, they wanted two forms of ID. I gave them my DL and my CHL. The lady saw the CHL and asked if I had something else. I told her no and she grudgingly took it. She was obviously not happy about it. I didn't care as I was saying a happy goodbye to that bank.whodat1 wrote:I found this conversation interesting since I just tried to use my TX CHL for a second ID at Bank of America and was told that it wasn't a valid form of ID. I was having a POA notarization done and also opening up an account to manage my mother’s money. I needed two forms of ID to do this. I was about to argue that the CHL was a valid form of ID but decided 'forget it". It wasn't worth the time as I was there with my mother who is starting in the first stages of Alzheimer’s. Since I had been out on business that morning and TSA requires me to use my passport for flying, I was loaded with other ID. I tossed down my passport, TWIC card and three forms of photo ID and told her to pick one. She replied that a credit card would be good enough.
I don't get this, a credit card with has no photo on it is valid ID according to BOA, but a Texas CHL is not??? I guess as an engineer I make the mistake of trying to apply logic and reason and I forget that that most people in banks are bureaucrats!
