So banks get greedy, lose our money and then it is us Joe public and our small businesses that foot the consequence!
Our Darling Alastair announced that he was leaning on the big boys, to make life easier for us small businesses, by getting them to reduce their credit interest.
When Luke and I started Bin Looney Ltd no bank would help us financially as their financiers has lost the country’s money or it had been used for their “hard earned” bonuses. So we begged, stole and borrowed to bring you Curl up and Dye. The salon is growing rapidly and we will NEVER forget who helped get us here, YOU, our amazing clients.
Is the reduction in credit interest really the way forward? Looking over our accounts I dared look at the charges that our bank HSBC (in my opinion one of the most arrogant of all) will be putting on us once our “complimentary” 12 months is over . I was disgusted. From here I dared look at what they charge us for PDQ (Process Data Quickly!!!!) services. It dawned on me that something that can be done in 24 hours, and is paid for per transaction, is taking 3 days!!!
So where does our money sit for those 2 days. Unfortunately HSBC are a extremely vague when it comes to honest answers (”Once again Gladys I understand how the system works, but WHERE does my money go for 2 days???)
So attached to my blog today is a rather brutal letter sent to Darling Alistair and our local MP, Dave, politely asking for the banks “over-bulging sacks” to be broken over this. Who runs this country? Democratically voted representatives (let try and ignore the expenses fiasco on this occasion) or greedy dictators commonly known as banks??
Enough is enough. People power is what is required and I would really appreciate your opinions and experiences regarding this, so please get in touch info@curlupanddye.co.uk
VIA LA REVOLUTION!!
