I established this credit line approximately 21 years ago and, to my knowledge, I never authorized the production or issuance of super checks on my account. \n\nThe production and mailing of these checks compromises the security of my account because the routing number and account number are printed at the bottom of the checks, and these checks were produced and mailed without my knowledge or consent. In addition, this appears to be a potentially predatory lending practice, as these checks provide no benefit to me as the consumer. \n\nI did not request, authorize, or consent to receiving these checks.
