Not so simple, I need more than one bank. Also I'm a cheapskate. These with offices usually cost 10-30 bucks a month. Just for that. If only using those that'd be around 50-200 moneyz a month for...nothing but being able to walk there, stand in line, then use a damn nasty machine made for dwarfs or talk to a stupid human. For every silly transaction?
Yes. Fuck them. But also...I need them. My solution was to just cave in and use one dedicated bank-phone. With fake google-acc, and firewalled to the roof.
Better than this walking solution? Like it was before. Web banking. On the web. With tan-generators or SMS. That was secure enough.
Such bullshit!
My bank with abundant offices all over town is free. Their only requirement is that I keep at least $10 in my account. And that's pretty much the norm. Most banks here are like that.
If that's possible here, why isn't it possible there? Maybe this is a huge business opportunity for someone who wants to start a new bank (or expand an existing one) in your area -- one with low/no fees and good, in-person customer support.
