    I knew they'd been diversifying their business a few years ago but that seems to be going a bit far! ;)

    If I'd been refused I'd have spoken very loudly about the bank not giving me my money
    Something like this?

    Although the banking sector paid more tax to the UK exchequer than any other industry in the last decade.

    They, or at least some of them, also got back more than any other industry in living memory

    This is true.

    Although as things unwind I still expect the taxpayer to make a profit.

    Albeit a case of waiting a fair few years.

    No they are not but IMO they are all guilty of tax and VAT evasion.



    :mad: how dare you imply that my or anybody elses tax affairs aren't in perfect order. MY experience in 30 years of self employment in the building trade, would suggest it is invariably the client that are the crooked ones.
  • That's good because it means they verified that you are indeed the account holder.
    I simplified my post.

    The teller knew who I was, I was in that branch every week as I got paid my wages by cheque and was there every Friday afternoon.

    He even called me by name before I even opened my mouth.

    He was just being an arrogent !!!!!!! on a power trip.

    Probably fred the shred was his hero.
    Getting forgetful, if you think I've asked this before I probably have. :rotfl:

    My father went through a similar things ,years back with Barclays. Conversation went something like,
    "may I ask what the money is for sir?"
    "whats it got to do with you ! "
    "we need to ask ,its all to do with tax evasion"
    "well I`m not telling you ,its my business. And if you don't give me my money now ,the manager will have a letter on his desk from my solicitor by the end of the day. Court proceedings will be instigated by the end of the week. "
    the money was then handed over.






    p.s
    my father sued a bank before , drove down to London ,issued a court summance to some head of department in head office . The bank manager in question at our local branch was removed from his post before dad had driven home again. You just need the bo**acks to do it.

    Or just following the procedures which his job requires him to do?

    Yeah right.
    When people have an attitude like your father's it's just embarrassing.

    Or a complete lack of common sense.

    When I went back for the money I laid the passport on the counter with the withdrawall slip and he never even opened the passport.

    It could have been anybodys passport.

    Another time I went to pay money into my wife's account, this was when chip and pin was just begining, I handed over the money was told to put card in machine and enter PIN. which I did.
    The money went in then he took my wifes card and told me because I knew the PIN my wife would have to come in for her card and also get a new PIN.

    He knew both of us.

    Again a lack of common sense.
