Please Sir, I'd like some more...

There are time when I think I hate banks. Wait, scratch that. I KNOW there are time when I hate banks.

Now, I dont want to go into complainer mode for too long, but really... I mean come on, can you (bank name withheld) honestly justify charging a customer for 9 overdraft charges in 2 days? How do you sleep at night knowing you are charging someone $34 per overdraft for a purchse of $3.

And really now, when did it become ok for the bank to allow you to spend money you didnt have? I was once told, "we guaruntee to the merchant that you purchased from". Umm, hello? I AM THE CUSTOMER! I am YOUR customer. How about a little guaruntee to me? Like maybe, you wont let me buy something that I dont have money for? Now THAT sounds like the kind of banking plan I want to have.

The Bryan Style Banking Plan
- Free Online Bill Pay
- Free Email/Text Msg/Facebook notification when you are low on funds
- A Refusal Of Use when I try to use my card and my account is empty
- And Most Importantly, A Free Toaster Upon Sign Up

Yeah, Ok, I know, Im just being dramatic. But seriously, Im considering closing my account with said bank. I think its pure ridiculousness. I miss the days of true Customer Service, when my bank watched out for me and my money.

I guess thats just one more reason why growing up isn't on my list of "favorites".
