    You are using an incredibly rare example to spin a situation to your way of thinking the same as when people say about children ect


    Not all sufferers of PTSD become violent so again another rather poor assumption on your part.


    Seriously you were probably in there for all of 5 minutes if that in what I would imagine was a large open plan building with windows and plenty of light the way you are carrying on you make it sound like they had you in a gulag in Siberia for 20+ years. You are making up a lot of over dramatics over a VERY minor inconvience



    You want to talk about being held against your will spare a thought for poor Jayme Closs who really was held against her will not just shut in a bank for a couple of minutes and I'm sure if anyone was suffering in the way you make out they could have been a quite word with the staff would have sufficed

    In the 00's I rescued a female student during an attempt to kidnap and drive away. Thanks for your input, but they are becoming increasingly weird, irrelevant and confusing. I won't be responding further.

    There is a world of difference between inconvenience and imprisonment.

    you really don't have a clue about PTSD and how it affects veterans if that is what you think or believe.

    Yes I actually have a lot of both personal and literary experience. You clearly are interpreting my comments inappropriately, in a trolling fashion. Thanks for the input, I wont be responding further.

    .......... I won't be responding further.


    You've said that four times now, but continue to respond. I suppose as much a hollow threat as taking this to court.
    BTW - how long were you locked in for?
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....

    If this ever gets to court (which it wont), please tell us where it is......would love to see you laughed out of court.

    I can see from the forum log where it describes you as Current Activity: Viewing Thread Toilet bought from B&Q

    that your legal advice should be carefully heeded.

    Thanks for the input, I'll not be responding further.

    Blimey! :eek:

    Weirdest post I have read here and that includes the dead dog one which was at least hilarious. EDIT to say thanks to GM for this:

    Definitely now in the wrong forum.


    I was stuck in a traffic queue the other week as there had been a fatal crash ahead. Couldn't go forward, couldn't go back... was I being unlawfully confined? Who do I sue? :rotfl::rotfl:

    Presumably the bank staff would simply be acting according to company policy and their training?

    From my initial contacts with the customer support helpdesk, and their stunned silence/initial shock, I'm not so sure.

    I stated in this now rather long and somewhat depressing (from a civil rights perspective) thread that previously I've experienced a staged lock out, where staff let people out and not in, 'shut' the bank, do the maintenance and reopen. This would appear from what people I have spoken to have also experienced as 'good practice' in anywhere where a cash matter had to be concluded.

    It appears to me that on that day, the manager was short-cutting policy for their own convenience. I would assert this was reckless.
    Without going into detail, a member of the public might also expect only one consistent official version of why this was being done in such a circumstance.
