Ring Fencing

Our banks have been forced to spend thousands of pounds lately. They’ve had to place funds aside to pay out for personal protection insurance. They’ve had to ensure that there’s funds to cover us customers when their bosses take too big a cut. And they also need to protect themselves against Brexit. That’s why ring-fencing has been set up; to ensure that each part of the business stays separate from each other. In other words, it sounds that there’s even less wealth to go round. But why the banks are sending this information to me is a complete mystery. I suppose it’s honesty; if it’s just described as maintenance work then we’d all be asking what’s improved. But to send out a six-page letter to tell us all about it is just a waste of more money; especially when they’ve e-mailed the document to me as well. But the most frustrating thing of all is that for some reason they’ve decided to print my sort code and account number on the bottom of every page. Why?
