Is this the 5 minute argument or the full half hour?

You're forgiven. It takes all sorts to make a world.

I've sent a complaint letter off to the chairman of my bank this morning, with a copy to the FSA. I'm just fed up with their careless attitude when it comes to managing my money.
I visited Barclays and NatWest branches this morning and there was a huge different between them. In Barclays, whilst they did try to sell me a premium bank account, at least had manners and made it a pleasant experience. In NatWest, they never actually said a single word to me, not even "Hello" or "Thank you", despite me trying to make conversation.
Peter.

I got a telephone call from my bank today to refund all of the charges and offer £20.00 as compensation! They were very nice indeed in the end and were genuinely sorry I had to chase them around.
Peter.
Edit: Like another bank I know, they always say "Hello, I'm calling from your bank" when telephoning me, and refuse to name the actual bank. It just sounds so fraudulent, even though it was a genuine call.

I just finished playing a bit of Halo on my Mac. It now has a ATi Radeon 9500 Pro, and a 500mhz G4. I was surprised that it runs and looks better than it does on Windows!

 Crikey. I know Mark has been snooping on my account to choose some images, but the stats also include loads of other images.
