Why do I have to remove my headgear and sunglasses and turn off my cellphone when I conduct a transaction in a Statewide Office?
At Statewide, we’re ever mindful of the dangers threatening financial institutions and their patrons, not the least of which is Identity Theft. We want to be sure that the person standing before is truly the owner of the account being accessed. Another danger is the possibility of being robbed. Our requirement to remove headgear and sunglasses might cause a potential robber to go elsewhere if he knows we’ll get a good photograph of him. In short, we’re looking out for your money and our employees. Thank you for your cooperation.
