RBS wanted Ginetta boss's mortgage back!

[dandarez]

Just watched Panorama. Ginetta boss Lawrence Tomlinson who wrote the report for the government criticising RBS etc.
RBS stopped him banking with them and told him to take his mortgage and find another bank! Other businesses highlighted too who were, well, finished off!

This country!

RBS epitomises all that is wrong with the British banking industry.

It needs a shake up from the top down. Lloyds, Barclays they are all at it.

The people I feel sorry for are the counter staff who see their bosses with their noses in the trough, whilst the banks are still being fined millions for malpractices dating back years.......

You're spot on there.

They are all at it. I bank mainly with B for Barclays or should that now be B for ???
Spoken today to what you term counter staff. Let's take Barclays in my local town. A year ago plenty of staff as you walked in, plenty of counters. Today the reality: one counter, a couple of staff wandering aimlessly asking if you want help or assistance? I said, no I know what I want and why I have come in. Really, I want another counter or the counters that have disappeared. Then I hear the plan. The face workers (counter staff) are in a firing line.

In another bank nameless but a counter more than B's 'where is all this leading?'

Probably one building in your town/city with one counter for each bank.
Oh, I get it, they're all in it together.
