[Electronics-talk] My brailled ATM cards are here

[James Aldrich]

Hi all,

If this were a perfect world, the braille card would be a perfect solution!  You know and I know this isn't a perfect world!  Let's assume your card was compromised at a restaurant or store or even an online purchase!  When we requested a braille card again, we couldn't get another one or we received 4 or 5 cards before we finally got a second braille card!  After a while,  this got very aggravating and old!  You don't get a braille card when it is renewed!  Someone at an airport ruined my braille card since it didn't work correctly in his card machine!  My wife and I liked our braille cards but Wells Fargo didn't uphold it's end of the bargain!  You might get one or two braille cards per account and that's it!  You are like anew applicant each time you try to get another braille card!  We decided we have faster service by getting standard  cards!  Yes!  We liked our braille cards while we had them but they aren't readily available! The bank does a poor job with the braille cards! My wife Dar and I won't ever get another braille card from Wells Fargo!  They promise the  world but they don't deliver!  This is during a period of 3 to 4 years!

>> Yes, the inability to read the security code without having a sighted person physically pick up the card and read it is a big problem.  What are the blindness advocacy groups doing to address this issue?  Nothing, as usual.

>>> So, how do you get that all-important security number then?  You'll once again have to wait till someone sighted whom you trust is available to help you as the credit card companies or banks won't help you at all.  It would have been nice if they would have added that, too.
