    Considering that I've put about €100,000 through them in the past 4 years, you'd think they'd be a bit more helpful :mad: Na, never put money into a CU so they wouldn't bother listening to me.

    Yeah I lived there when I was a kid but don't really remember any of it and then late last year went with some friends and had a fabulous weekend and enjoy it so much I went back in January! :D

    All in the same branch I hope?

    Request a meeting with the manager tomorrow morning and tell them exactly that. Let them know that you're looking at moving banks if they're unwilling to help, that it's for education, which is obviously an investment...

    The only way to deal with bank politics and bullsh*t is to be a wanker.

    If you still get told no, you get extra points for screaming "You ****ing **** ****" at the bank manager over the phone.

    I always make a point of not getting angry at the counter staff or the person that answers the phone.

    Ah well, got loads of holidays to take before the end of the year. My boss is getting annoyed that I haven't taken them. I'm taking them as fast as I can!

    this one was not listening to me when I was explaining how they messed up! So she was trying to get me to pay extra charges for their fukk up. I think not.
