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

the reason
In the dark ages, everything had to be done by hand. So it would take hours at the end of the day to balance all the books, and do all the paper work. Imagine having to settle a couple of 100 cheques by hand. So they would open to the public from 10am-3:30pm but be working 9-5.

But not sure if it takes just as long these days. I am guessing that they probably still have a lot of procedures and checks to run through.

However, they /could/ employ more staff to stay open longer, which is what most shops with extended trading hours do.
