BanksYour Ginger Fuhrer froths, "I hate my bank. Not because of debt or anything but because I hate being sold to - possibly pathologically so - and everytime I speak to them they try and sell me services. Gold cards, isas, insurance, you know the crap. It drives me insane. I ALREADY BANK WITH YOU. STOP IT. YOU MAKE ME FRIGHTED TO DO MY NORMAL BANKING. I'm angry even thinking about them."
So, tell us your banking stories of woe.
No doubt at least one of you has shagged in the vault, shat on a counter or thrown up in a cash machine. Or something

I went to a cash pointand sat in the slot was a £10 note!
I needed £20 so I put my card in the machine and watched it blue screen and reboot into windows XP. Piece of shit.

consultant head onBSD would be my rec. and If it had to be microshit it would be 2k as most of the hard bits were done by real programmers, not MS clowns and it is more stable and secure than XP. ( go and have good look, not just my biased opinion)
Some gel hared thicko would probably suggest vista!
Pass me me pistols, the hounds are still all fagged out from yesterday`s jehovah`s witnesses and I have to improve the species.
