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

Debtdefaults only come when countries have to raise their interest rates to attract investor capital, having exhausted other avenues - [tax and new debtors]. At the moment we've been given free smack samples, payback comes later.
All those people on trackers whose payments have fallen will notice the credit crunch when interest rates rise.
Seems to be a consensus that "the can" (i.e. debt problem) can be kicked down the road for a few more months before the maths kicks in, but not much more. SVR/tracker based debt is about to become very expensive.
