Why Do I Need A Bank BRANCH?

    I really miss my local branch: it was so handy to pay in cheques, pay bills, change big notes etc & much more friendly than impersonal phone banking or the clinical on-line accounts. They knew me, so none of this soul-destroying 'press-3,000,000-different-buttons-before-we-will-notice-you're-there' routine....yes, I know it makes me sound ancient!


    Me too,:D My branch is 50 miles away, but years ago when I had my only two bank charges (never made that mistake again, hard though that's been!), the local branch removed them immediately I asked.

    Then the computer generated comms took over completely so (like me) a local is probably somewhat redundant?
    Not just a sucker for sweeties..:o
