Good for you to realize this pal. Better late than never. haha  Grin Grin It  has been repeated so many times in the threads on bitcoin forums of how horrible the banks are.  But there  aren't   enough options for us to choose from tbh.

I had some problems friday trying to send a transaction overseas, and I was told to "please you'll have to wait until monday" without any details on what went wrong. You can imagine my frustration. Banks do indeed sucks and are deprecated as hell in this post-Bitcoin reality. I can't wait until Bitcoin scales up to defeat all those dinosaurs.

What happened exactly?

There's a reason there is a sarcastic saying that implies people don't work much, it's called "working banker's hours." Global adoption of Bitcoin will be great but I think the fiat system needs to remain for Bitcoin to flourish. If the fiat system disappears the Bitcoin system will be completely exposed to manipulation (as we've seen with fiat.)

What happened? I took a cheque I received to a branch of the bank that issued it and they refused to cash it until Monday.

basically it's a stupid think that bank are closed in the weekend and payments can not be processed when we all know that payments are alla automatic

i think it has to do with the fact that bank fear a mass withdrawal in the weekend, and some will not be proceeded due to their pesky scam about investing your money ecc....

I have often been a victim of the banks' nuisance, when I had important work to do and somehow at some phase, had to rely on their assistance for the completion of my transactions or confirm payments, I visit them and they make me stand in line for so long or sometimes even tell me to come back after an hour as they are on their 'lunch break'. FUCKING KIDS, need a recess so bad. Can't hire different people to work while the others have their break, fucking stupid.

It is hard to follow your intention with this thread by not providing information why your bank makes problems.

Are you from Greece?  Wink

Of course Bank tellers can't process transactions during weekends. Banks are reputable institutions after all. Another fact is that money are working for the bank over night and during weekends.
Bank invest your money during that time, money in the bank are not yours anymore they are bank property (you probably know what happened in Greece and on Cyprus).

Even I have had similar experiences  with banks. They had me waiting for two hours once. Also I had been treated not so kindly by the workers there. And after waiting for almost about an hour in line just one person was in front of me when they asked us to come back an hour later because it was their lunch time. I felt devastated. That was the moment I started hating on banks.

Its sad you had such experiences in banks, but the reason banks deserve hate is much more than their rude behavior and unnatural work ethics, its them 'creating and empowering' scams. Its the banksters risking the savings of so many customers and gambling with their money with foreign deals and a major example is the Greece economic fallout.

My bank here is really cool but as the state of affairs stand today we really need to engage in more options where currencies and commerce and savings are concerned..Diversifying assets in different currencies is a MUST nowadays. Holding everything in the banks is not an option anymore.

my banks is also very good, zero fee on everything plus only 1.75 % on conversion rate from other fiat currency, actually i don't have a real bank account, but just their card with a control panel, which require 3 numberous to gain the access

despite this i'm still with bitcoin for numerous thing, like full control over money and fee, like the fact that bitcoin work 24/7 ecc...

Your words are music to my ears.  Wink

Every time someone complain to me about their banks, I answer them with this... "Why do you not switch to Bitcoin?"

You stand before them with the Blue pill and the Green Pill.... They already had a taste of the Blue {Banking} pill... and the experience was bad... You are giving them the option to take another pill... They can chose to stay with the Blue pill, or they can try the Green pill.

Go Neo... Try the Green pill  Wink ...You will realize the truth, when you take the Green pill.... {The Blue pill is not your only option anymore}

This puts me in the mood, to watch "The Matrix" again.  Grin Grin Grin

So you're recommending people to switch to bitcoin, in terms of transactions? If they want to send somebody money, they need to convert their money in btc and send that btc to somebody who also has a bitcoin wallet. If you are recommending people to switch to bitcoin to store their savings, you think they wouldn't fucking kill you if they put their life's savings in bitcoin and there is a spike down and they lose more than half of their savings? What will you say to them in terms of emergency then? 'HODL?'

Cm'on man, that's why the bitcoin was invented in the first place, to help out when the fiat system fails us. Hang tight, Bitcoin will soon be everywhere to help our cause.

as we know that central banks are currently the dominant structure nations use to manage their economies. and they have monopoly power and are not going to give up that power without a fight,meanwhile Bitcoin and other digital currencies have generated significant interest for better curency than fiat, but government support for them is virtually nonexistent.
