Every bank is like “we’re more than just a bank” and all anyone wants is for them to shut the fuck up and be a bank

@Daojoan that's why I've stuck with ING. No bullshit, just a standard set of accounts. It's all I need

[lilstevie@infosec.exchange]

@sortius @Daojoan same as me with HSBC, they've even done that whole bank thing of facilitating money laundering and shit you know... bank stuff

[sortius@infosec.exchange]

@lilstevie @Daojoan yep, financial crimes are generally a sign they do banking

@Daojoan @timrichards
The bank I worked for in the 80s had a travel agency.
A few years later someone must have said “what the hell were we thinking” and the sold it off

@Daojoan Most banks also suck in the basics of banking: Easily send money out (or sometimes even in), see monthly/yearly breakdown of my spendings, have a useable address book, speed, security, …

@Daojoan My brain melted when I was in San Francisco for work a few weeks ago and found out the Capital One Cafes are an actual thing. (No, I did not go inside, but there were people in there drinking coffee and doing coffeeshop shit.)

@theorangetheme @cpkimber @Daojoan there was a laundromat / bar on the high street near where I grew up. Legit "more than just a laundromat" - you could have a beer and play a game of pool while you waited for your washing to finish. I never brought laundry there but I went for drinks a few times and the laundry machines were in use.
