I have been affected by this over the past week or so. I've been on holiday, and came back to a house with no fresh food, and no working bank account to pay for any, so I've been eating processed shite out of the freezer like a student for four days, and it's making me feel a bit poorly, not to mention the freezer is starting to look a little bare. I haven't had breakfast for days, and I have about two meals left if I stretch it. Surely this isn't acceptable in 2012?
Perhaps a little less seriously than the effect on my health from a lack of fresh food, I was paid my monthly salary yesterday, and that hasn't appeared in my account. I'm assuming that it'll appear in the next few days, but if it doesn't, I can't purchase the car I'd arranged to buy on Friday. It's all a massive balls-up and affecting my life in so many random ways.
Can any British readers recommend any alternative banks? I'm based in the centre of Sheffield, so I have the choice of pretty much all of them.
