Yea banks are the ultimate bluepill to swallow. It's the same in the US. Banks just offer a service. Good service but realize that it's all just numbers and they can basically do as they please.

This is a big reason I have a lot of money in gold and silver for general savings instead of my bank. Retains value too and doesn't just get eaten away from inflation.

Good. This should be a wake up call for anyone with large amounts of cash in the bank.

No doubt because of all the stupid old idiots who get scammed on the phone & get told to go into their bank & withdraw large sums. Clearly the cash point cannot ask you questions, it is purely for the oldies using the counter service.
