You should have heard the convo I had with the University National Bank people. Their own automated system will assign a PIN to the card, but I couldnt get it to work. I called them and they told me you cant use the PIN for purchases. I asked, why the hell are you assigning PINs if you cant even use them? They couldnt give me an answer. They escalated the problem and told me they would call me back. Never did.
