At this point all the banks are pretty sure my mother sounds like a man, and if a woman called they'd probably fraud it ;)

i always call with *67 and they confirm by sending a one time code to the phone number on file
*67 makes a difference for toll-free numbers?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Did you ramp up slowly? I have hundreds on data points on this one.
Can you share some of the main ones?

Cycling the CL is not an issue. If you can pass a FR you don't even need to ramp up.

I think so, but possibly not, it was quite a few years ago. From what I do recall though I let the balance sit for a bit with the full line maxed out before paying, that's likely what did me in.

i believe it does, because i have never received the standard "we see you are calling from a number that matches your account..."
My theory is that even though toll free numbers get the ANI version of your phone number, i think they are set up to receive it as CNID numbers which is the standard "caller id". so technically they can get your info, but being that their systems arent set up for that , they wont actually see it in their systems...

Citi rep said something about voice verification, but I've always spoken for my husband across all banks and they just correct themselves from saying Mr. To Ma'am...

Chase - No MO deposits or third party payments.
are 3rd party checks an issue across most banks? or is this just part of chase's general paranoia (like with cash)?

Do we have DP on 3rd party payments with other banks?
Amex?
Boa? (teller vs. atm)?
Citi? Elan?

ETA:
Citi, and BOA as well.
