Grr, some things just make me mmmaaaddd.

I recently passed my driving test, and as such, need to get a rather hefty loan from the bank to buy a car. Also, I received a letter from my representative at the bank informing me I am incurring charges when I get overdrawn (which happens every rarely) and I must set up a meeting with her as soon as possible. The thing is, the nearest HSBC bank to me is in Harlow, and I work in Sawbridgeworth. The only times this bank is open, is 9-5 on weekdays. Not on weekends.

Now call me crazy, but surely a large majority of people who have bank accounts are working all week? Wouldn't it make sense to be open at least for a few hours on the weekend so all those who can't make it in during the week because they're busting their hump working can sort out their finances? This means I'll have to take time off work to get to the bank, pay for travel to Harlow to get there and pay for travel to get back, racking up a rather large cost for me. And they're complaining that I'm incurring charges when I'm overdrawn? Because of stupid stuff like this, you idiots!

Grrrr.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
