Do I have grounds to sue my Bank?

If the OP continues with his present attitude I suspect he will be REQUIRED to take his business elsewhere.
If the MSE Forum Team have to keep editing his posts for language, I would expect them to request him to do the same also.
I see he's deleted his last few posts, how long before he starts demanding the first one be removed I wonder.0 -
Not quite sure why the OP didn't just make a transfer to their Son's account and ask the Son to do the withdrawal.
My Mum sometimes gives me a lift to work so I send some money to her account for the petrol or if she fills up on the way home will pay for the petrol myself using my debit card.Interests: PCs. servers, networks, mobiles and music (esp. trance)0 -

Don't you dare tell me to get off my backside either. You have no idea how much pain I'm currently in, having to get changed and take a car trip to the bank would have meant putting myself through even more pain. Instead we decided the easiest option would be for my son to go to the bank with MY PERMISSION and transfer some money to an account so I could withdraw it. Bearing in mind the only reason I had to do this in the first place is because Barclays, as always are under-going technical difficulties, disrupting their CUSTOMERS lives again.
Do you think you are the only one in the world who has had serious injuries, runs a house and has to get money out of a bank?
Well you are not.
The fact you could manage to go to the bank with your son to bang on the window indicates you weren't in as much pain as you stated and the pain killers you were given work.I'm not cynical I'm realistic

I'd be especially interested if he was knocking on the window using the plaster-cast on his broken arm
(Yes, I've seen that done)
To be honest though, I think the OP stopped reading this thread on page 2, when he knew he wasn't get the replies he wanted.
Must remember to treat newbies like my boss: Tell them what they want to hear, not the truth.0 -
It's as though you're saying that I should be grateful for the wonderful banking sector, who kindly look after my money for me.
Well that is exactly what you do when you hand YOUR money over.NO, they are providing a service to me. I shouldn't have to go out of my way to perform a simple task with MY MONEY.
But it was NOT YOU asking for the money....How many times do I have to say this, it's MY (text removed by MSE Forum Team) MONEY. The banks should be grateful to me for all the times that I have had sums of money in my account, in which they've made their profits, yet given me little or no interest.
You picked Barclays over all the others.
Barclays put systems in place to ensure only YOU access your funds.I'm not getting a bus when I feel like this, unlike a lot of you, I live in a world where things can't be done in correct way all of the time. Also known as the real world.
Telephone banking and a transfer to your son would have solved the issue in less time than it took him to drive to the bank.You seem to be forgetting the fact that I am a customer to the bank, they are providing a service which has left me in a very stressful situation. I don't care if it was the weekend, banking and financial matters don't stop for the weekend.
Which is YOUR fault. YOU broke the T/C YOU agreed too.I know Natwest has a new feature that allows you to withdraw emergency funds from cash points. Why the hell doesn't Barclays have this feature? They should have these things in place to prevent their CUSTOMERS from going through this.
Which they had to withdraw from service after massive amounts of fraud....Don't you dare tell me to get off my backside either. You have no idea how much pain I'm currently in, having to get changed and take a car trip to the bank would have meant putting myself through even more pain.
Who is this WE you talk of?
Putting on a pair of shoes and a coat... Not too hard is it.Instead we decided the easiest option would be for my son to go to the bank with MY PERMISSION and transfer some money to an account so I could withdraw it.
How do the bank know he has your permission?
Would scare you to know how much fraud is commited by siblings taking parents cards and taking cash.Bearing in mind the only reason I had to do this in the first place is because Barclays, as always are under-going technical difficulties, disrupting their CUSTOMERS lives again.
So why have you not moved your banking if you are not happy with their level of service.
Strange that you are in so much pain, yet you can type out a long, thought out post such as this...Never ASSUME anything its makes a>>> A55 of U & ME <<<0 -
Thread of the week.
Amazing how these days its always someone elses fault and never your own...0 -
This has all got a bit out of hand. Let's just answer the OP's original question once and for all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=1EAQiEzUA0k#t=9surs sinserly,
