In response to some of the recent political events taking over discussion in after hours I am creating this thread for the time being. Essentially, if your thread ends up here, it means it does not belong in after hours. If more suited to other forums, where possible, these threads will be moved. If you have any questions…

Probably people taking out more than usual.

They might put 20k normally and it is suffice but make the 20k is gone by 5pm these days and they haven't upped it.

This is going to become more common. Banks will be concentrating on some ATM's, leaving others unstocked with cash, and unserviced. Part cost-cutting, part they don't have the physical cash to keep them all stocked all the time.

Stop scaremongering

Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

I would suggest contacting your bank and reporting these faults.

just read that some banks are only allowing 1k max withdrawls at a time but you have to give advance notice?

Banks are closed now so can't ring em obviously. Planning on buying a car for cash and that wouldn't help.

Nope, haven't come across that one.

brianc - not sure if you are being serious or not, but no need to withdraw anything. Your money is safe.

With all the hype going around about a bank run or the possibility of Ireland going back to the Punt or Germany to the deutschmark where do ye think the safest place for savings would be?

I'm thinking a Canadian Bank or would Sterling be good?

*Posting in AH cause I think its a matter that affects everyone
