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

Before the ''credit crunch'', when banks actually lent money to people.....A guy I work with needed a few grand to blow on his 50th birthday. Not having a few grand however, he decided to phone up his bank.
''Hello there, I've been banking with you for x years, and I'd like a loan for £5000 please''
''Shouldn't be a problem sir, but for our loan approval system may I ask what this loan is for?''
''Well, it's my 50th birthday next month, and since you're only 50 once, I'd like to blow the lot on a holiday and a massive piss-up''
''Right, okay. Let's just put that down as a loan for a new car then''.
Loan approved.
Come to think of it, no wonder we're all in this fucking mess......
