> pays with a check and couldn’t figure out how to get their child some plastic

I was almost about to empathize but this is hilariously poor problem solving skills

Sorry your experience leads you to this path

The common denominator is your crappy bank

Wow, that was rude.

For the record, I know how to get her plastic. There's literally one store right now where this is an issue for her, and I'm not going to jump through any hoops at all (like continuing to pay the monthly fee for a FamZoo card or switch banks) just to accommodate that store.

And said "crappy bank" is a well-known investment bank. Supporting minor accounts isn't profitable for them.

Investment banks aren’t for consumer banking

Opening a retail bank account isn’t much of a hoop to me
