This is a question Banks

Your 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

Show me your what?!
Whilst sat in HSBC for over an hour trying to fix a balls up they had made, the 'counsellor' I was speaking to left the booth we were in to go find something or other of little importance to this story. While she was gone, I took the opportunity to survey the area for anything that might momentarily relieve me of my boredom. Lo and behold, I spotted a laminated guide to 'good practice' or some such bollocks stuck to her monitor. Amongst such gems of wisdom as 'Keep smiling' and 'Show interest in the clients problems' I spotted the holy grail of hilarious dimwittery that caused me great difficulty in keeping a straight face when she returned. On this guide to good practice were the words:

"Show the customer your knowledgeable."

I can assure you, the irony was not at all wasted on me.

Should any of you wish to observe this first hand, to my knowledgeable they are on every single HSBC monitor in Bath.
