Note:  I wrote the following as a comment to the story about the 86 year old woman standing up to her bank.  I felt "urged" to share this as a Blog Post.

This Letter would be more Hilarious, if it weren't so True.

Who hasn't been nailed with fee after fee when banks automated systems skip a beat? Then, who's responsibility is it to correct to matter? One month I was nailed with $200.00 in fees for not having the required money in my account at the exact moment when some payment was due as opposed to seconds later - a scenario that never existed when I first joined the bank 40 years ago.

I'm through begging the banks to treat me with respect and return money they stole from my account. That was the respect they used to give me for over 3 decades of good banking relations before they became the Undead Zombies that they are today. I've closed my accounts and abandonned ship. They are not representative of me or my needs. And they are called Banksters for good reason.

Just Google "Bankers Arrested 2012" and see the list of criminals that pretend to be your ally.

Drain the Banks and Join a Credit Union. Member owned and operated. Unless you like being Abused, which is what the banks do - while still pretentding they are the stalwart protectors of truth and honesty in banking.
