That sounds pretty draconian, based on a flimsy premise **, and
considering the usery banks are often accused of, not a very
strong moral position either. For example if they paid more attention
to merchants checking that the card user is the card owner they'd
have a fair bit less misappropriated funds to reimburse

Surely the bank has, or should have, all the verification procedures
for them to know that it is _you_ using _your_ account to have a
transaction with a merchant of _your_ choice

** sounds like corporate myth, such as cellphones causing fires in
gas stations, so you aren't allowed to use them there. No signs up
about the provable dangers of common static electricity though

Based on what's been said on the WU subject, I don't feel quite as
unsure as I did. I'll look into the fees though

Thanks all
