RG YOU DO NOT NEED A RECORDER.
Like BirdyC I have shopped 3000 branches in the last 12 years. You do not need to record anything.
READ Guidelines completely, add notes to your report form.
READ all of the report form, make notes of things you need to remember. Take with you in the car.
#1 be sure to get the name of the teller if you speak with one. They have name tags, sometimes business cards, just ask at the end of your conversation. Wait for the Banker to offer you a business card, if not ask.
#2 Notice how many customers are waiting in the sitting area.
#3 Check the time from the time you wait until you are greeted and assisted.
#4. Use your own name first until you get used to using an alias.
#5. Listen attentively, do not feed them any information, only answer questions like you are a real customer.
Get the Bankers hair color, length, aprox. age. location, Desk, at teller window, office.
#6. Do you have Direct Deposit or not.
#7. Checking balance, use what you normally have unless you are given the amounts requested by MSCompany.
#8. Tell them you want just a regular account, they will select the best account for you (that is what it is about)
#9. If you are in an area that you don't live in, if asked, tell them you are thinking of moving, or you work in the area, don't say where.
#10. If you are asked for a license, do not give them one, no SS #, no address, no accounts with them(alias if you have an account) Just say at the end of your conversation, "I'm not sure yet, I will think about it, or I'm looking around.
#11. I always say ,if asked that my Bank is, Bank of America, don't give a small bank name.
The shops are easier than you think, you won't remember every detail, but you will remember what was offered, and if they spoke about, finances, credit card, saving accounts, no details just if they gave you information.
