    Although I do understand what you are saying, it seems we come from different generations and digital banking helps me manage my banking by far and also is a higher protection against fraud and scams.

    Banks in my area no longer have staff present or if they do it's a 2-4 week wait, it's also no longer safe to be using cash machines through larger cities in the UK for many reasons.

    I put myself through bankruptcy not a bank or anyone else for that matter.

    One of the main reasons I got myself in this mess was through me not going through my bank statements and checking things including budget management. Digital banking for the modern age is a life saver for me, not 1970's traditional banking.

    :rotfl:I'm not quite sure how old you think I am but I certainly wasn't doing much banking in the 70's !!

    21st Century nautical technology is as modern and digital as it gets - but who would go to sea with a captain or crew who couldn't read a map/chart...no matter how flashy they think GPS is...:)
