So you feel that it is OK to argue with customers,and charge them for a service that would be free,because the bank was so Micky Mouse that it did not carry sufficient funds.

Ignoring any emotive language and choice of words, this boils down to a customer wanting a product/service, the bank advising against it but delivering to the customer what he/she wanted. The customer was then found to have made the wrong choice.

Some people are past told anything other than what spouts out of their mouth.He had not asked the dealer how they wanted payment just assumed that cash would be ok.
It was the garage who wanted a bankers cheque and would not accept his personal one.
We went to a great degree of trouble by arranging encashments along the way (it was £25k!) which could have been avoided if he had listened and phoned the dealer from the branch to see if cash was acceptable.
Sorry if you think banks are Micky Mouse because they don't have sufficent cash to satisfy your whims, but hey I'm sure you cash that amount all the time right?

do you know the statistics or is it just a feeling

Stats now show that C&P is starting to reduce credit/debit card fraud, the 2 growth areas seem to be 'customer not present' sales ie Internet and telephone and cashing fraudently in person at banks.

He doesn't need to use his imagination because he's right, kenshaz. I don't know what news report you're referring to, but those of us who actually have some experience in the industry are trying our level best to tell you what is actually happening.

Of course, as far as you're concerned we're all peddling the lies of the mysterious cabal who plot our every move. Tin foil hat, anyone? :rolleyes:

I'm sorry, but sometimes there really is no point at all in trying to engage in sensible discussion with someone who won't budge from their dogmatic point of view. Especially if their only contribution is to send a series of antagonistic responses to every point of view that is contra to their own.

It's certainly worth asking - eight years ago (last time I bought a car from them), probably the largest car dealer chain in the West of Scotland declined a personal cheque - cards only, they said.

Kenshaw - you asked me how i felt when i was a cashier (not now) about asking questions to customers - i agreed with it, and i didn't like customers getting annoyed about it when i was protecting people's funds

in the bank you get aggressive people anyhow, which of course we have the right to not serve

anyhow, back to the subject - the cashiers can be liable, yes - also if they suspect something irregular on an account, if they do not report this (what possible could be money laundering) they could go to prison

so please, let them do their job - and let them followe rules that are in place for everyone regardless of whether they know you or not

exactly! - Kenshaz is under the impression that the systems in place are down to Bank policy, but many are acts of law which the banks must abide by
