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

BANKS = CUNTSI've moaned about this before. The Post Office Bank mislaid my money which was 80,000 quid for nearly 12 weeks - it turns out they put a 5 instead of a 3 in my postcode. In itself fucking hellish but I had a 125,000 dollar bill to pay and the pound went down the toilet that weekend just as they mislaid the cash.
Oh they accepted they were in the wrong - after all I lost something in the region of 13,000 quid on the back of this - and offered me 200 pounds in compensation.
A boring story I agree but they were a bunch of incompetent cunts and I feel better now for this chance to vent my spleen.

Sue themI suspect you have very good grounds for suing them on the grounds of negligence.
A boring answer, but maybe profitable.

Went to find out about thatSadly when i went to a lawyer I was told I had no grounds since the bank couldn't have known the dollar pound exchange would move so much and I had no contract with them to return my money for a certain date. The financial ombudsman has been good however and it looks like I will get a settlement much closer to my losses soon (although it has taken months). An even more boring reply but there you go.
God Im boring myself now.
