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

They're scared of The List here tooI had trouble opening an account when I moved here (Canada) but nothing like your story (it only took about 1 month). The thing I found amusing was that university student ID was on The List of acceptable ID, but my university faculty ID wasn't allowed. Neither was any of my aussie ID - including my passport.
They also wanted to see a credit card, which was problematic because I'd decided to cancel my aussie one so as not to pay fees on a card I wasn't using and had replaced it with a visa debit which apparently doesn't count (I convinced them that it did count by saying I'd see if any other banks would accept it).
