Went to get a new debit card yesterday - what a hassle! The employee who printed the new card didn't know how to use the machine. I went to the SuperMarket - was unable to use the new card.
Had to call the bank (call #1) - was told I was supposed to activate it at the ATM. How would I know that???
Was transferred to the phone number to activate my account - went thru all the steps. Went back into the supermarket - card still didn't work.
Called the bank (call #2), was told that my card is activated - it must be the supermarket system. Back into the supermarket, card still doesn't work.
Called the PNC customer service number. They had to call the bank to explain how to use the machine - while on hold - headed back to the bank.
The person who told me that it must the supermarket's system is "the expert" is printing new debit cards !?!?
She printed a new card and activated it for me. Went to use the card - finally worked!
Don't they print new debit cards all the time - it IS a bank after all ?!?! No one knows what they are talking about - VERY friendly, but don't know what they are doing.
Go to a different bank!! read more
