Perusing my account on-line last night, I noticed that £650 had disappeared out of my account. It was there on Friday, but not there on Sunday. Thinking I knew the reason I phoned the bank this morning and was told that because my mortgage was due to be paid today, i.e. the first of September, the money had been "set aside". So I asked if that had brought my account to nil and I had gone out on Saturday or Sunday and spent on a card, would my account then have been in overdraft. Yes, I was told, it was because it was a Bank Holiday. But not a Bank Holiday in Scotland, I told them. (QUICK ON THE REPARTEE)! Ah, I was told "we are taking it anyway"!
So bear with me. If the Clydesdale Bank has say 2 million customers and 10% of them are in the same situation as me and the Clydesdale can make 5% annual interest on the money market, then they are thieving £75,000 plus from their punters.
WHERE'S THAT GOING BANKERS, INTO YOUR FUCKING BONUSES?
BASTARDS!

They have no right to do this but that's how they make the money.
Perhaps you could trust a building society more? I don't know much to be fair.
I have a special method. It's called Under The Bed™ Banking. I trust Under The Bed™ more than any other bank because there are no unsympathetic robot staff on the phone and no thieving executives.
Just a small pile of money.
Aye Shibbs, but I know where you live!
Was it a bank holiday in Australia?
My point entirely, Anonymous.
