Grr , again, accepting DD instructions when I have told them not to, so getting a fraudulent payment refunded.

But they are victim blaming, saying that in order to set up a DD someone has to know the sort code and account, and that I should be careful giving it out!!!

1. They don't - they can make up an account - the check digit is simple.

2. We have to give details for people to pay us - D'uh!!!

Why are all banks a pain?!

At least I am am entitled to an immediate refund so no loss.

How do I know Bank of England raised interest rates?

immediately upped my saving account rate to 4%

Meanwhile saving account 1.4%… low and unchanged as they pocket the difference for their profit margin and rely on customers finding too hard to switch 🤮

Apparently refused to open account for Jeremy Hunt because he is a Politically Exposed Person (PEP). The inference being that they shouldn’t have refused on ‘political’ grounds.

[sigh] this has nothing to do with politics, it’s about staying clear of potential government fraud and corruption.

I agree with Monzo. Hunt is pretty much _exactly_ what PEP is there for and I am not surprised a consumer bank didn’t want the hassle that comes with dealing with PEPs.

Hello friends! Just moved over. Let’s do an . (1/2)

I am Joel (he/him).

I grew up in 90’s Essex on a rich diet of tree climbing, second-hand Commodore VIC 20 cassettes, last-gen Sega games, and then, suddenly, hypertext: a creative medium that made my brain fizz.

I don’t remember much of the 2000s. I hope the machines also have the good grace to forget.

I spent the 2010s leading at tech startups in London (helping scale was a highlight).

Today the of , a next-gen bank for New Zealand similar to and in the UK, have asked me to speak about banking in New Zealand from a Blind person’s perspective. Our big four banks are Aussie owned wraking in big profits, so Debut wants to do what did to the duopoly. This is a chance to have your say in building something by Kiwis for Kiwis, and the waitlist for when the app launch is open. makingdebutbank.co.nz/?userCod

car club is refusing me as a customer because I bank with

No joke, they explained this in an email after I asked them to explain why I was declined.

I can't hire cars because I bank with Monzo?

Apparently a change by the underwriter means that "Applicants with challenger bank cards are being vetted mush more strictly."

WTF!?
