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

Wow!...I've just spent the best part of 3 hours perusing these stories, many replies, and even enjoyed the occasional chuckle at some of the more wittier responses.
I've even contemplated adding a witty anectode containing some punnage of epic proportions, as my financial background is totally hopeless and the nearest I've ever got to working in any type of financial sector, is counting the days takings in a bar*
That said, I'm actually amazed by what I've learned on this edition of QOTW and I'm going to spend the rest of my day trawling through my sorry excuse of a bank account in order to see if a hopeless individual such as myself can resurrect what ever financial dignity I may have left.
Cheers fellow B3tans, for an unorthodox (if not exactly reliable) education in the world of banking which has made more sense than my highschool experience of 'business studies class' - which was packed full of long words I'd never heard of, and often presented to me by a mouldy business teacher who looked older than the sun, and smelled of feet.
*This status has now changed, you'll find it - if you read the small print carefully.
