A lot of the banks are very similar. I wanted to buy some crypto currency, so opened an app to be able to trade crypto. Very few banks will allow you to use their accounts to fund crypto trading apps, I gave up in the end. I can't believe they can control how you spend your money.

Wait till the government roll out a CBDC, then you will know what control is

Any help with what CBDC stands for?

Deleted it years ago because of delayed time getting access to funds...as I wasnt a frequent user.

I read that this is deliberate so they can use vast tranches of capital to skim off interest /use it in other ways. Not sure if true but was enough to put me off.

Central Bank Digital Currency.
Every transaction you make goes through a government-run central bank. With Ai all this is going to be easy.

I needed cash to pay a plumbers bill. The bank (RBS) asked what i needed the cash for. So I told them alcohol and drugs. The reply "i can't put that down as a reason." So I said "well, you did ask."

Once you pay money into a bank account, the money legally becomes property of the bank, you are lending money to the bank. You are effectively an unsecured creditor, with the bank having an obligation to pay you back.
