Oh lookie.

Three mortgage lenders have announced that they are independently raising their mortgage interest rates.

Some banking cockgoblin tried to sprinkle caster sugar on the fresh glistening turd by saying "they had tried to avoid passing this increase on to customers until now, but had to do so at this time".

Oh how they must have deliberated!

I reckon it took about this long:





Cunts.


Meanwhile over at Bank of Ireland, a brief email trail shows us how they're reacting to the completely unprecedented loss of small portable computer things with the old "Customer Data Base" (c:\topsecret\Confidential-Customer-Details-Do-Not-Open-If-Ur-Not-A-Banker-LOL.mdb) on them.


Operations Team Lead Johnny "Thunderbolt" Cronin is poised to take whatever action is deemed necessary to restore confidence in his watertight outfit.



Chief Technology Officer Frederick Mangan wastes no time laying down the law.

Freddster dude.

I think you totally mean encrypted. That's where the portable computers are hidden away, like in a cave under the ground.

It's all Tibor's fault, man.

I told him to put the fuckin' things into the cellar, like below the underground carpark last year - now he fuckin' tells me that he couldn't get the door open so he just like, left them behind a pillar and stuff.

I've revoked his tea and coffee privileges and severely curtailed his toilet break allowance.


Dumb bastards
