Why do people care?

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate banks? Just like every other big company on earth they pretend to give you what you want and supposedly care about giving you a good service. BOLLOCKS! A good servicing more like. I've never come across organisations with such contempt for their customers (barring $GOVERNMENT and monopoly utility companies).
Here's the latest one. After I moved house in December, I had to obviously change my address. Ok, look on website on how to do it. You can't phone up or go in the branch, you've got to fill this form in. Ok, sounds a bit stupid with no proof of ID with the form when you send it in but go on then. Filled the form in and received a letter telling me to go in the branch with ID. Easy enough... except they all shut early on Saturdays when I'm usually extremely busy.
I finally managed to go in the other day with my passport. Sat down with the bloke who then proceeded to tell me that I didn't need to bring my ID in (WTF?!?!). All changed within 3 minutes, except for the time it took him to find a working pen.
Whilst in the branch, I used the opportunity to pay a cheque in. Waited at the counter only to be told that I had to use the machine (what - so you can lose it for another month?). This is the same bank that won't let me go in and take out any less than £300 over the counter. Ok then, I've never used the machine before but I'm technically minded and shouldn't have a problem. Then the next problem - you've got to fill an envelope in with the details. Ordinarily not a problem. But again, was there a working pen? Nope. My bank was one of the ones rescued by the Government. BILLIONS OF POUNDS OF BLOODY TAXPAYERS MONEY AND NOT A WORKING FSCKING PEN TO BE FOUND. I swore and walked out. I'll try again on Saturday (if it's even open) and this time I'll bring my own bloody pen.
One day I'll tell the story of all the hassel I had with them trying to open the account in the first place. That was fun. You'd think with all their experience they could open an account properly wouldn't you? Ha. I couldn't get hold of any money for a bloody month.
Bring back the wages in a little brown envelope I say. Banks? Pah. F**k 'em.
