You can always use the phone number of friends/family that already have a card or go with 867-5309 for bigger chains.

The Jewel Oscos around me partnered up with a 3rd party company. That company took your bank information, and every bit of information needed to commit identity theft. In exchange for this you were able to pay with a fingerprint. Oh yeah they also took your fingerprints. All ten of them even though you only needed one to buy stuff with. Then a couple months later the 3rd party company disappeared. No one knows who they were, or where they went, or who has all this personal information now. I'm shocked there hasn't been lawsuits.

You could probably also use one of those local "haha someone gave you the wrong number cause you're a creep" lines.

Albertson's bought the local grocery chain here and now the little card reader ignores your card until you push a button saying you aren't part of the rewards program. It fucks up every 5th to 6th transaction and loving freezes every 20th or so. Adds at least 20 seconds to the average checkout time. gently caress you, customers.

There's a dude at the Target here who will literally pretend not to hear you if you say you don't want a Target red card. If you say you don't want it, he'll go 'What was that? You DO want a target red card?" And he'll pull out a pen and the paperwork and start to hand it to you with this dumb loving look on his face like he just pulled off the greatest heist in the world. I refuse to believe anyone has ever fallen for this, but the fact that he keeps doing it must have mean it was reinforced somehow.

Target is also lovely because they just got new card readers, so if your credit card has that stupid chip in it you have to use your card in the stupidest way possible: Push the card all the way into the machine, now leave it there, *BZZT* ope it hosed up take out your card, push it in as far as you can, keep pushing it, keep it still, wait 5 seconds, ok take it out. Why the gently caress can't I just slide my card like a non-mongoloid?

Had a guy call the store loyalty card a "government spy card" when I offered him one when I worked retail, I just sort of nodded while he clued me in on how the government used them to spy on him. He was buying 12 tins of tuna and way too much toilet roll for one person to use in any reasonable length of time. Never knew that was a thing.

Its like the maintenance agreements that Sears/Best Buy push. a bone to pick posted:Target is also lovely because they just got new card readers, so if your credit card has that stupid chip in it you have to use your card in the stupidest way possible: I saw those, I have a chip card but still swipe on the side

What you do is, you and all your buddies make one fake account and all use the same card. This fucks up the NSA's tracking algorithm. Everybody in my social circle uses my phone number from ten years ago so I get billions of reward points and gas discounts (which I never use and just let expire). gently caress those guys.

Should be more creeped out that people I emailed once or whose phone numbers I recently put in my phone end up on my facebook "suggested friends" list, but nah the true terror is CVS and some shadowy advertising firm knowing, without a doubt, I bought $6 worth of Otter Pops this summer.
