# oh yes - that was the worst rebrand ever - it was truly awful
and then they became Santander - so they rebranded again

I've been with the Abbey for 18 years now - it's a rubbish bank and is getting worse

they've just changed their charges now, so instead of being charged £6.18 a month for being overdrawn - I'll be charged a flat £10 -"just to make things clearer"

My personal philosophy (apply this as you will to software, mobile phones, cars etc): IF IT DOES THE JOB, THEN YOU DON'T NEED A NEW ONE!

# it is the utter filth
that is office 2007, a product so vile someone at microsoft should have executed the entire development team.
2003 worked ok, why fuck it up and make it unusable for everyone?

# ^ this with bells on.
Awful, awful program with no new functionality. Purely to make a quick buck. Uninstalled it from my new work laptop and put 2003 back on. I couldn't be arsed to wait to download the plugin for back-compatibility, so I just use Open Office to open them. I much prefer Open Office, just a shame so few people use it. It's free, FFS...
