Why do you need a copy of my wife's social security CARD?

My wife tried to move from her parents family share plan to her own plan. Already a Verizon customer, she was asked to fax her social security CARD to corporate verizon. When asked why her card is needed and not all others who sign up, she was told this was a "Random" policy, like being selected at TSA. This did not make her feel very comfortable in sharing such personal information. Is anyone able to provide a better answer as to why her card is needed? She has excellent credit and is already a customer! If she gets no answer, she is going to AT&T.

She does not have an issue providing her social security number in order to perform the background check- she did so. The issue we are having it that she was then told that she needed to fax her drivers license and social security card in order to complete the credit check. When she asked why, the answer was "just because". She asked if everyone had to do this, and was told no. So she asked why SHE in particular needed to, and no one could answer that question. She does not feel comfortable doing this, and she should not have to if it's not required of everyone.
She would like to be able to set up her account without faxing her social security card, like many other people are able to. Can you please let me know who we can contact to make that happen?

  • Why do you need an f after a float initializtion?

    When you make a declaration and initialization of a float, you have to put an f after the number, correct?
    Like
    float productPrice1 = 285.00f;
    why do you need to do this and do you need to do it in an assignment operation to?
    productPrice1 = 285.00f;
    What about for doubles? Would I need to use a d in place of the f?
    thanks

    What about for doubles? Would I need to use a d inplace of the f?
    No, you need to do that to tell the compiler it is a
    float, not a double. When assign to a double, you
    don't need to tell the compiler it is a double. :)although nothing bad will happen if you do use a 'd' or 'D'.
    Good luck in learning Java.

  • Why do you need to shift click to select stroke color with eyedropper tool?

    Hi,
    Quick question..
    Why do you need to shift click to select the stroke color with the eyedropper tool?
    I had the problem where I could not do this earlier and found the solution on this forum.
    However I still do not understand the reason for this.
    Appreciate if anyone could explain it to me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Nori

    Hi, Nori,
    If you have the red and blue rectangle selected and the Fill square selected in the tool panel, as at bottom left, then hold the shift key down and click with the eyedropper on the green stroke in the upper rectangle, then the red fill will turn green but the stroke stays blue. If you select Stroke, as at bottom right, then shift-click with the eyedropper on the green stroke, the blue stroke will turn green but the fill stays red. With Fill selected and shift-click on the yellow fill, the red fill turns yellow; with Stroke selected the blue stroke turns yellow. If you do not depress the shift key, the red and blue rectangle will become yellow and green.
    It's complicated to explain, but I think that if you try it step by step it will make sense to you.

  • Why do you need to go about linking to services-config.xml in your flex compiler

    Why do you need to go about linking to services-config.xml in
    your flex compiler when you want to do remoting. It just seems like
    a complicated way to do things.

    Yeah I find this perplexing as well. I'm guessing it has something to do with Opalis origins perhaps.
    Would be good to understand why.

  • Why would you need an H.264 hardware encoding device?

    I am a casual user of Adobe Premiere Pro and just upgraded to CS5.5.   I have been reading threads and someone said that he has problems with the Matrox encoder.  I can import my video and make and DVD so why would you need another hardware solution? 

    I don't know how it works on Windows but on the Mac it shows up as a QuickTime component. So any application that can export a QuickTime movie (QuickTime Player, Adobe Media Encoder, Compressor, etc) can export to this component and it will utilize the Matrox hardware.
    Theoretically you could set your preview file format in Premiere to the Matrox component but I don't know how well it would work.

  • Why do you need PVDMs?

    Hi all,
    Dumb question!
    Why do you need PVDMs in a NM-HDV2-1T1/E1? The voice from the IP phones is in digital form, and so surely is the voice coming in over the T1/E1 - why do you need these DSPs?
    thanks,
    alec

    You could almost call them transcoders in this case.
    The default g711 codec for a given country (g711ulaw for North America, g711alaw for most everywhere else including I think the UK) is identical or nearly identical to that used on PRIs or clear-channel channelized circuits. If the g711 variant you're using for your VoIP traffic isn't the same as the g711 variant for PSTN circuit you're using, the DSPs handle that transcoding. If you're using robbed-bit channelized circuits, the DSPs have to drop a little bit of information. If you're using g729 or another low-speed codec, the DSPs have to "expand" the audio up to the PSTN channel size. And of course, the reverse of all this stuff takes place when audio comes in from the PSTN and has to be packetized and sent out on your IP network.
    The DSPs are also in charge of getting the right data to the PSTN channel at the right time. T1/E1 lines have strict timing requirements and the DSPs handle transmitting bits at just the right times. Part of that is handling the de-jitter buffers that turn possibly jittery RTP traffic into a nice isochronous bitstream for the PSTN circuit, and doing predictive insertion if we don't get voice data in time to put it on the circuit.
    One more duty the DSPs handle is echo cancellation from the PSTN. They "memorize" outgoing voice traffic, and then they listen for it coming back from the PSTN. If it's present, they mathematically "subtract" it from the incoming voice stream, which eliminates it.
    This is not a complete list of what the DSPs do for you, but I think I hit the highlights.

  • HT1918 Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?

    Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?  If I cannot purchase goods with the prepuchased gift cards, then the card is useless and I want my money back.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Just because you are being asked to enter your credit card details doesn't mean that it will be charged for your purchases.
    Is it a newly created account ? If it is then unless you use the instructions on this page when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used in the store : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • I'm about to install snow leopard on my 2006 macbook, OSX 10.4.11. I read that I'm supposed to copy my old OS to an external drive before hand. Why is this? What does it accomplish? If I upgrade to 10.6.3, why do I need a copy of my old 10.4.11?

    I'm about to install snow leopard onto my 2006 macbook with OSX 10.4.11. I read that I should copy my old OSX to an external drive before I start. Why? What is the purpose of this? Once I have snow leopard, why do I want a copy of 10.4.11? Won't I be able to import what I need while installing?   Also, what is the point of partitioning my disk?  I don't understand what that's for if I'm only going to run one OS on there. Any experience or advice is greatly appreciated.

    It is always wise to have a copy of your latest working system ... preferably on an external drive.   As Neil says, you may run into trouble and if you do you can always return to the original situation and start again.
    Once you have installed Snow Leopard (an excellent system if I might say so) then you probably won't need 10.4.11 though you can never have enough back ups in my opinion.   It's amazing how often a need arises.
    Having a backup on an external drive allays the need to partion your hard iMac drive for the same purpose..

  • Why do you need a logical plant?

    Hi Guys
    Please explain me with an example, Why do I need a logical plant in SAP. If i decide to have one, can I have a logical plant without a valuation and then on moving the stock to the original plant it should get valuated. I raise this discussion my implentation is affected because of wrong valuation of stock. Please express your confident views regarding.
    Regards
    Pradeep/ICF

    Hi,
    Not sure why you need a logical plant. Normally dummy plants are made to facilitate material movements to cater complex scenarios. In OMS2 you can omit any Material type with regards to the plant as "Value updating" .

  • Why do you need my bank details if your apps are free

    Why can't I download a free app, if my bank has under £10 in it?

    I don't need your bank details, and neither does any of the other users in this user-to-user discussion forum. You will have to direct your question to Apple, not to other users.
    However, Apple needs some sort of proof you are who you say you are. The way they do this is by verifying a payment method. So you need either Apple gift cards deposited to your account, or a debit or credit card number.

  • Why do you need WiFi to watch a downloaded movie?

    I bought a movie on my Ipod touch and watched half of it. Then when I went to finish it, It would not come on due to "no Wifi connection". Why do I need WiFi connection to watch a movie I just downloaded?

    There's downloading and streaming. And often hard to tell the two apart.
    Downloading means that the files are stored on your device, streaming means that you simply access them, but need to be on the net to do so. It sounds like you were streaming a movie, not downloading one.

  • HT2534 why do you need my cc?????

    The article on itunes is incorrect.  I do not get an option to click "none" when creating an apple ID...I only want to get some artwork, not planning to purchase anything, so why do they need my cc info?

    dablenda wrote:
    I think this is ridiculous...why would I put that information out there if I am not buying anything?
    Setting up an account without a credit card does appear to be slightly "involved", but since you have stated that you don't intend to buy anything and that you simply want to find the artwork, perhaps you should concentrate on getting the artwork using the method I suggested.
    I never get artwork for any of my albums from the iTunes Store. Since the Store only has artwork for the albums it sells, several of my CDs will not be found in the Store anyway.
    There is another method too if you are using your CDs as the source for your music: if you have a scanner bed, or a printer with a scanner facility, scan the CD cover and paste that into your artwork box.
    By the way, note that tt2's post states that you cannot change an existing AppleID to the "no credit card" option. So if you simply tried to change your existing id, then that could be the problem.
