Rail against Banks and their life in the slow lane
Last Tuesday afternoon Anna sent a standard bank transfer to our suppliers in Canada which cost a not inconsiderable £16 (ouch!) and we have learned that it was credited only yesterday. What are things coming to in the electronic age when it takes 8 days to give someone their money, its an absolute disgrace.
I think we will be paying our supplier via paypal or credit card in future as it is almost instantaneous, okay it takes 3 days for them to take it out, but it is sitting in their account, and even if we get hit by a 3% surcharge we'd still be better off.
The banks have had their chance, they are seen to be wanting and profiteering, stuff-em.
