bryanthompson's Journal: Closing my Bank of Amigo Acct. 2

Journal by bryanthompson on Saturday March 03, 2007 @01:44PM

My MBNA credit card got taken over by the Bank of Amigo, and since I think their new illegal immigrant card policy is total crap, I just paid my balance and will be calling to close the account. It's probably better not to have any personal CC's anyway, but this kindof sealed it for me.

  Most illegal aliens get federal tax id numbers. Not valid ones, but most employers that would hire illegals don't make a habit of verifying - they're all 1099 based, not W-2 based, so the validity is irrelevant to the employer.
  
  It'll be the same issue here - why would a credit card issuer need to check the validity? They're not with holding taxes, so as long as they have anything that just LOOKS valid, they'll accept it and go. Nobody is going to check.
