Not a clue!
Remember credit card numbers?!? I consider it a success if I remember 3 out of my 4 kids' names every day. It's an outright celebration if I remember my own!
Wow kind of sad. Little bit too much don't you think?
Some people are going too far with this credit stuff business. Just saying.
if you use them a lot to buy stuff online, i don't see why it's so extreme to actually know the information without looking at the card.
I know or recognize most of my bank accounts, and cc by the last four digits only. That is all that shows on receipts and online.
dude11, you're on a credit/FICO/repair board - you're going to see a lot things which may seem extreme to you.
Anyway, I never memorized a cc# but I used to have my debit and checking account number memborized before my memory got bad. I still know my driver's license # though.

I can definitely see this happening. I used to be able to remember things too.
I can still recite my late father's SSN, which was the "sponsor number" that I needed to know as an Army brat. That was in the late 60's - early 70's. Sadly, he passed away in 1980, but there's that number still rattling around in my head, 414-22-0XXX. Go figure.

I could if I want to.
I can still remember my library card number, which is 20 digits.

I remember the number of the very first Cap1 secured Mastercard that I had back in the mid-1990s. It's been closed for years, but I can't get the number out of my head; I can still rattle it off.

Some of us just have, uhmm... eccentric memories. I'm bad with names and faces, but good with numbers. <shrug>
