Just set up bank accounts for the children. They have a double-barrelled surname (but no hyphen).
The cards have just arrived, but the bank has chosen to format the names on the cards as first name, initial of first part of surname, last part of surname.
I can’t stand the surname being chopped up like this; it’s not their name. I’ve asked for new cards with First name initial, then full surname, but bank computer says no.
The names aren’t crazy long, but fitting first name plus both parts of the surname exceeds the allocation of letters the bank allows on the card. I know people with longer surnames than we have.
e.g. name is Amy Smith Jones
Bank card reads Amy S Jones
We want them to read A Smith Jones
AIBU that I think the bank should print the cards with the names on correctly?
YABU - it doesn’t matter
YANBU - yes, banks should be more flexible/accommodating.
