The cashiers is not the idiot. It is the management does not understand, when it says compare signature. They mean compare to what they sign (The screen or the receipt). Not with your ID. I do not blame the cashier at all, he/she was told to do this.
That what I was trying to tell George that merchants do not understand the rules.
If you were there and saw this guy (the cashier) you might revise your statement. Let's just say he wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.
Also, like I said, this is NOT normally done at this particular Wal-Mart. Most cashiers check the sig on the card when they get this same prompt. I paid with my debit card, so it didn't happen to me. We'll see if they have new instructions next time I pay with a credit card.
