It would be wise to have a hard record of your bank balance and money
movement.  Going cashless and banking by telephone seems most risky.
Recently, over here, four bank customers each discovered that $100,000 had
vanished from their bank accounts.

Insist on a hard copy - whether it is a receipt, credit card docket,
written acknowledgement, cash in the pocket, ATM slip, whatever.  They may
be the only defence in the case of fraud.
