For my main bank account, I have a debit card, sure, but also an old fashioned checkbook. If I write a check, there may be no issue of proving identity to get the check cashed. If so, then go to another bank, open an account, and make a deposit via check on the old account.
Did the guy in the OP have an old fashioned paper checkbook?
