Can I see an I.D

[Anonymous]

Are you ever offended when a cashier asks for id with a credit card purchase??

No, it bothers me whenever they DON'T ask for ID.. A lot of stores in New York and New Jersey are notorious for not asking for I.D.. My thinking is: You mean some loser can steal my credit card and go on a shopping spree at some of these stores and get away with it because they don't ask for I.D.?  It makes me smile when some stores do ask customers for I.D. because when I lived in Florida, most of the stores I went to asked for I.D..

I always hand my I.D. over together with my credit card, even if it's a store that's notorious for not checking I.D.

Nope, they're helping to prevent fradulent purchases from unauthorized users.

Yes, it may waste 5 sec. of your life, but it's definitely beats dealing with the CSR if your is card stolen and used by an unauthorized user.

I wish more people ask to check my id.

I understand what you mean. And yes it would deter crime if all store personell asked for it but me having that NY state of mind and knowing that most stores never ask it definitely upsets me when they ask but hey maybe I'd be less upset if I was more used to that practice

nope, doesn't offend me.  sometimes it annoys me when i know that 99% of the time that store never checks, but it's more the inconsistency that bothers me rather than the actual question.  around here nobody asks for ID usually.

I guess you need to get used to it lol

That's exactly what it is the inconsistency with it in a particular store like to I purchased something in staples with my Amex and the girl didn't ask for Id but I returned the item to purchase a more expensive model about 100 bucks more and now the concern for id lol so I'm like WTF but I didn't care just thought it was backwards..

I thank them for asking.

Lets see, five seconds to whip out my id, or goodness knows how many months and countless efforts to have fraudulent charges removed and repaired from your credit.

i actually appreciate the stores that ask for it all the time...its just the ones that selectively ask that annoys me.

kinda like airport security......its like.."why did i get chosen for additional screening"

I get annoyed whenever a store NOT asking me for ID. It feels like if I lose my card someone can just use it to without being busted.
