It finally happened...

sterl1002 — Fri, 25 Apr 2014 16:17:48 GMT

Until I discovered myFICO last fall I was a avid debit card only user. Well I went to a local club with some friends that only took cash, so I went to the ATM and put my debit card in and that's when it happened.... I couldnt remember my PIN number! I sood there for about 5 minutes thinking and staring at the machine, and it was a no-go.

Forintately one of my buddies was able to spot me some cash and I went into the bank branch across the street from my apartment the next day and had the number changed to something I *hopefully* wont forget! Anyone else have this happen to them?

That's ok, your friend saved the day, just don't forget when your bills are due

Well I did come back from a long business trip, went to the office and kept putting my debit card number in the security system, and kept wondering why it would not work.....

Last time I went to a club, I wish that was all that happened. I wound up on stage,, singing.... it wasn't pretty cause my friends recorded it. Still comes back to haunt me from time to time.

I can never remember my pin number now. I just write a check when I need cash or go through the drive thru teller.

I had to find my old wallet in my nightstand just to FIND the debit card. I needed to to go to Sams Club and then I realized they take Discover anyways so there was no need. I think the only way I will remember the PIN is to tattoo it on my hand. I guess using it once every 6 months isnt enough to get my brain to work hard enough to remember it
