The Banks Proceed to Enjoy Their Waiver

The Banks certainly seem to be enjoying the freedom allowed to them by the FSA's Waiver.In the last Calendar month I have had Four Hundred and Fifteen pounds taken from me in Bank Charges! I went into the bank today to discuss the issue, but was told that I would have to put my complaint in writing. It has gotten that bad that I have had no choice but to take out a 'Consilidation Loan.'


The banks appear to be happily taking advantage of the new waiver, the number of charges levied on my account seems to have risen dramatically, and the bank is unwilling to do anything about it.


The sad fact is that we are honest hardworking people, yet we struggle more and more each month. This latest string of charges amounts to more than half my monthly paycheck, financially speaking we would be better off if I had less of a conscience. Sadly in todays Britain, the only people who can afford to live 'comfortably' are the stinking rich and the criminals. Everyone else struggles whilst these two other groups thrive.


The class system was abolished, but the effects and principles remain. The seperation between the rich and the 'poor' grows each and every day.
