There has been much discussion about not giving your social security
number to various companies for various reasons.  In reality it does
not matter.  When I applyed for a Citibank credit card I left that
portion blank, but the letter they sent me informing me of my credit
limit had my social security number printed on it under my name.
If a company wants your SSN they will get it.
