Prezactly. Consider this message at the portal of a major US bank:
*Analytic reports are not available for the selected account or your
eligible accounts maybe hidden....*
Feeling particularly anal this morning, I took a screenshot and sent it to
my account rep this morning to have it changed. I explained the point that
Phil makes below.
I have good rapport with my bank (unlike that dastardly Wells Fargo) and
thought I'd help the institution out. Also, in taking similar action in the
early '90s regarding a certain Windows tips newsletter that arrived in the
mail one day, my employment opportunities suddenly expanded exponentially.
One never knows....
