Banks are FUCKING ARSEHOLES

Chunder · 24th October 2005, 11:35 PM

Anyone else agree?

Can anyone tell me of any good experiences they've had with banks. I can't think of one myself, but I can think of a load of shitty ones

Ive just been charge like 15 quid for a bank transfer, and then because my bank here is like a third world bank (Japanese still insist on using cash for everything, debit cards are a new concept, cheques very rare), the details I entered didnt work, so they cancelled it, and charged me 3 pound for the priviledge. Now I need to pay another 2.50 to do the transfer again, thats assuming it works.

All the while I'm living off instant fucking ramen....

Damn I *really* detest banks

I was originally with Bank Of Scotland and they told me if I put £100 into my new student account then I would get a limited overdraft. Even though I had no money and had to get a loan from my parents I did that only for them to tell me I had to wait until I'd had my next loan instalment through until I could get the overdraft.

So I then decided to go into the Royal Bank and set up my account and got £1000 overdraft straight away. Also at the start of this year I got it extended to £1400 no problem.

In conclusion Bank Of Scotland are cunts and Royal Bank Of Scotland are a nice bunch.

Yeah the company i work for got bought over the day my pay check got cashed but as the old company wasn't recognised it bounced.So TSB said i owed them 50quid and for a month everytime i got paid they took my money that they didn't deserve.After a month of problems i got all my money back in a 200pound windfall!! *finger to the system*

This will be the same Royal Bank of Scotland who decided to charge me 4 times for the same one offence of going 16p over my overdraft limit (which might I add only happened because the information given to me at an ATM wasn't updated)....

Maybe I just have all the rotten luck with banks

RBS are the worst

rbs are the best bank (expect the byres road branch, they're a bunch of cunts), and it's an automated thing if you go over your limit.
