Are you 100% sure it was a form from a bank?
Everything stinks of a scammers phishing form, leading to scammer calls.

I expect the only time a bank is going to want your phone number is when you initially sign up with them. After that, they should know who you are and your contact details.

I almost got caught out by a "sorry we missed you" delivery message, until it was asking for my date of birth.
Some of these random emails and SMS can catch you off-guard and seem legit

The xkcd explained brushes near it.

Many of the passengers would suffer extreme injuries from the changes of velocity (up to 230 mph based on a loop radius of 3 x ship length) and rotation (unlike rollercoasters, or even airplanes during simple take-off and landing, passengers aren't normally strapped down).

You can take apart juice bottles.
The least realistic part is that anon managed to get to and dilute every bottle their gf used.
Cause if they miss one, their gf is gonna have a serious shock.

So, lack of consent and extremely controlling?

I have finally stopped using Spotify.
Now using TIDAL and absolutely loving it. It's like what Spotify used to be, loads of great recommendations, much better audio quality, a bit cheaper, and I believe the artists get a better cut.
It's too good to last, but I'm going to enjoy it while it does

I report them as spam.
Its nothing i signed up for, and consider it marketing. And there is no unsubscribe link in the email, and its from an unmonitored inbox.
That makes it spam, and i hope it trashes their mailer IP's reputation

I guess this is approaching the "find out" phase.
VW/Audi group fucked around with emission tests, and they found out.
