But the bank staff can't call if you're not a member of that bank.

Ok, the story goes I got a letter saying I had some $ in an account. Cool, I had completely forgotten. So I go to the place and find it's changed ownership. Ok, maybe I can just withdraw the $ (or most of it) at the ATM machine. Pop card in, enter pin, then how much I want. UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS. Machine keeps the card. I punch machine, people look concerned at move away. Lost a card in that same machine before (accidentally) so this just set me off. Never got contacted the last time but both cards are canceled. Did, however, set me thinking on just what does happen to them.
