Well it seems the banks have another six months to continuing getting richer and fatter (it seems they make 2.6 BILLION a year from bank charges) because I found an article today that is featured on the Times Online site reporting banks now have until January 2009 to let their customers know if they will receive compensation.

I guess one way to let them know how unhappy you are is to vote with your feet and set up an account with a co-operative! They would soon take notice if thousands of people left every week. I’m having trouble finding a co-operative in West London but still looking.

Maybe they do online banking… I really must look into this.
