deathboyIs anyone else with Barclays pissed off and suspicious that their recent "security measures" that now mean an intra-bank transfer takes a day, rather than being instantaneous is simply another excuse to make a few quid off its customers while it holds money in escrow?
Anyone do banking / bank security stuff out there that could tell me if this isn't just utter dirty-dealing?
I know, I know, a high-street bank ripping off its customers, who'd'a thunk it? I just had a reasonable relationship with them recently, now I'm fucking annoyed.
Personally, I reckon this bit of news here is going to lead to a surge in imaginary charges / fees over the next year as the establishments try to find new ways to wheedle money from us.
I've written to 'em to ask for an explanation. I might pop into a branch this week, let a sub-manager squirm for me for ten minutes.
