I recently went to cash a check at a XXXX, MA branch of Bank of America. It was a BoA check made out to me. They asked for my photo ID, which was reasonable, which I provided. They then stated that in order to cash the check, I would need to submit to fingerprinting. There was nothing on the check stating that in order to cash it, I would need to submit my biometric data to a corporation. I felt that this was an unreasonable breach of privacy and offered to provide a great deal of other ID that I had on me such as credit cards, driver 's license, social security card, etc but nobody would cash my check without a fingerprint. I should n't have to be made to feel like a criminal for simply trying to cash a check from that bank without having to submit my biometrics. I would like to see the CFPB pass a regulation forbidding this practice as it is an unreasonable breach of privacy in order to accomplish a task so mundane as cashing a check.
