thewayneIt was for the Visa Check Card, the one from Bank of America (IIRC) where your change is put into a savings account. They showed a card being swiped through a reader, it was one of those cards that have a photo on it. The photo was oriented so that you could see it properly. The problem is that the magnetic stripe is at the top of the card, thus the card was swiped through the reader upside down and would not have been read.
