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"

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.

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.

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.
