    There I was saturday/shatterday in The bank of Ireland paid by check to change it, and the teller says to me... Can you identify yourself ?

    Well I was confused at this time, so I took out my small mirror that I had in my pocket and looked into the mirror and said Yes, it looks like me, it is me, yes, I can identify myself. She looked at me as if I had caused an aircrash. WTF is the matter with those people. Can you identify yourself ffs.

    Did any of you ever experience a weird situation in the bank ?

    That doesn't sound like a weird request, your reaction does sound weird however.

    If you were a comedian on stage and everyone viewing this thread was the audience the room would be dead silent right now.

    Are you complaining about poor grammar or being required to identify yourself to prevent fraud?

    I wouldn't regard being asked to identify yourself in a financial transaction as weird.
    It is a bit weird though that you are still being paid by cheque.

    She was probably wondering how you got into the bank!

    What dafuq? That's so weird.

    She obviously meant, can you prove you are who you say you are.
    Would you prefer if I went in with your cheque I robbed off you saying yes, I am him. That's me.
    Look at me. I'm him.

    Monies now please.

    Weirdest thing about it was you carrying around a mirror.

    Didn't know that Bank of Ireland opened on Sundays. I must complain to my local bank manager and reference this thread.

    You need some balls to present yourself on this thread. Not for the feint of heart.

    Hey ? what's the problem with my grammar?

    I'll be murdered here.

    Did you leave the door open ? It could let in a draught.

    In fairness though, Bank Tellers are up there with Post office clerks for snotty attitude.

    Post office clerks put up signs saying position closed.

    You've got to know when to hold it, and when to fold it.
