Thanks for the info. The exchange did cross my mind but they really should clarify it by asking the first 3 digits and not the whole number. Not bitching at you just saying.
@Carn: I see it as an imposition to asked to reveal something private for any research or corporate use. Like I said before I only use checks for bill paying, and those companies/utilities already have my info. I like to be private. Plus, you tell the cashier your Phone and the person behind you with the photographic memory or a handy cell with address book calls you to fuck with you, publish your phone on the net to crank you, or worse to stalk you if you're a hot girl. It's an unecessary thing to ask of your customers IMO. It's like asking a stranger how big his/her cock/tits are. You can say "it's none of your business" but the question really shouldn't be asked in the first place.
