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

I had this with Barclays
try this argument:

"You can't accept my notification of change of address because the signature's not accepted because it no longer matches the signature on record that I gave you when I was 14 and I'm now 27, right?"

"that's correct, sir"

"So perhaps you'd care to explain to me why you've been cashing one rent cheque a month with an incorrect signature on it for the last few years*, then? Surely you're not going to tell me you don't even look at the cheques and it could have 'Mickey Mouse's fat balls" as the signature?**"

"......."

"Will you change my address, now?"

"yes, sir. Immediately"

"thank you so much"


*this was years ago, so you'd need an excuse to write a cheque these days

**I know they don't look at cheques. No reason why they should unless it's a large amount of money. But you'll never get them to admit that.
