When I worked with MPs, the number 1 topic people attended surgeries for was fraud. People who'd lost thousands through online accounts. It's a scandal.

So youre telling me there isnt a single bank in West Yorkshire. Not in Leeds, not in Bradford, not in Hudderfield, not in Halifax... okay sure.

Title before it is changed so this post has context "West Yorkshire has no Banks, but one Post Office Banking Hub"

In the area, the reporter was in.

Might as well change the title to "UK has no Banks, just one post office banking hub" and we can all just adopt your logic.

[Yorkshire has lowest ratio of bank branches
to people in UK, says Which?

Consumer group says 6,161 branches
have been shut since 2015 and there are
30 constituencies without one

You don't struggle to find a bank? I have to travel 25 miles for a branch.

No I have two of my bank, among other banks, within a 20 minute walk. Only one of the two is open on a Saturday though, which is annoying I must admit.

Yes that is the whole point of this thread


Some do not drive
so it can be harder for them.

haha, no, Nationwide.
They say you stick with your first bank your whole life.
And here i am still with nationwide even after climbing to the top of society.
But you are right i really should open an account with Coutts im sure it would be a great parternship.

You are at the top of society? LOL...

I've met people at the top of society, I've been around them and mostly they have a little class, they never boast about how much they've got. I feel embarrassed for you sometimes.

I buy and sell the people you talk of.
