| 659683 | 2008-04-17 04:58:00 | Well i was opening up a new bank account at a bank(won't name the bank) and i got my atm card and was not required to write an electronic signature with that special pen thing. i did sign my siggy on the a4 paper forms but if they photocopy these signatures from the paper surely it won't be 100% clear because of the photocopiers resolution. if i was to withdraw some cash from my account at a branch how would the teller know if the correct signature is on the withdrawal slip? |

| 659684 | 2008-04-17 05:07:00 | when i opened my bank account I never had to do an electronic signature but they must have a way of doing it, as once before when withdrawing money I have been asked for ID as my signature must not of been close enough to the one they had. | josh2200 (6681) | ||
| 659685 | 2008-04-17 05:11:00 | . . . if i was to withdraw some cash from my account at a branch how would the teller know if the correct signature is on the withdrawal slip? Do banks still do the withdrawals at a branch thing? |

Are you sure they didn't scan it. Also I don't think conventional photocopiers have a resolution, as what is scanned is mre like a vector graphic, and doesn't lose much in quality if you zoom in on it. |

| 659687 | 2008-04-17 07:21:00 | Do banks still do the withdrawals at a branch thing? Are there still physical banks out there?? I see that ANZ national have just announced they are outsourcing 500 jobs to India. Bad to hear on a day that F&P announce their 430 or so job losses. Ken :groan: |

| 659688 | 2008-04-17 07:50:00 | Do tellers ever look at the signature? My scrawl is probably very different from the sample they got quite a few years ago. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 659689 | 2008-04-17 10:13:00 | If two of my signatures are similar, one is a forgery. | R2x1 (4628) | ||
| 659690 | 2008-04-17 21:06:00 | With any of my ATM cards I have never signed anything electronically only signed the back of the card with a pen. With withdrawals I don't think they bother to check the sig. |
