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.
Banksters only care about Their Needs and Their Bottom Line. You and I are Last on the List of their concerns. They don't want to deal with you, just go to the machines. Oh they'll talk to you when they want to sell you stuff, stuff you don't need like more insurance, and at exhorbitant rates no less.
Banks used to be People Places. People serving people, people gathering and chatting, person to person contact, no fee problem solving, and friendly service.
Well now, we've got the Libor Scandal, we've had multiple Arrests and Convictions of Criminal Banksters all around the world, even at the Vatican. And for good reason obviously. Fiat Money! LIbor Rate Fixing which is Outright Theft from your Account and Mine! Additional Theft of Funds from people's accounts through automated punishing fees! Actions supported with Lies! Lies! Lies! and more Lies!
American Federal Reserve - a private enterprise - Is Now Bankrupt with multiple liens against them because of Manipulation and Lies, followed by more Lies, which are then Lied about again. All Major US banks circling the drain because of corruption, abuse and criminal activity. House of Cards coming down. GET OUT NOW!!!
Let's help accelerate their inevitable Demise, and put a stop to their Criminal Activities. Let's stop feeding the system that hurts us all.
DRAIN THE BANKS of your funds and automated deposits and JOIN A CREDIT UNION.
It's Time to Put the Banksters out of Business.
