This mild bitching brought to you by TSB... I think

They were Lloyd's Bank, and then there was another bank called TSB, and then they merged to Lloyd's TSB and I think they're going by just TSB now but I'm not entirely sure

Bank standards are slipping

Used to be they made sure that when they gave you notes all the queen's heads were facing in the same direction

If you paid notes in they'd make sure that all of them were orientated properly

Now they don't bother

Suggestion: when you're building a user database, assign each user a 16-digit hexadecimal number as a unique identifier, disallow that internal identifier from changing, and let everything else change.

Want to change your username? Great. Want to change your email? Fine. The unique hex ID is all that matters.

16 hex digits is enough collision space to give every person on earth about 2.5 /million/ accounts on your system, but short enough that you can write it down on a post-it note.
