Problems with banks you have faced

[Halmater]

The place that I work signed a contract with a bank for three years in order to be paid our salaries and they offered a free account and a free Visa card. After tree years, my company signed a contract wiht another bank and I went to previous one in order to close my account. I thought they did. After years I received an e-mail that says I have to pay for account management fee. Although they have said to me that they closed my account and give receipt for it, they did not do that. But after those years I did not have this receipt. I paid the money and I never trust to banks after this happened to me.

When people talk about the benefits of bitcoin over Fiat money, one of the biggest advantages is that bitcoin is more secure and the bank has not control over your money. Generally, people talk about the lack of 3rd party.
Give some examples of the problems with banks you have faced that there wouldn't be if cryptocurrencies existed that time.

this will be a long debate that will never be resolved until the time comes.
I think someday banks will adopt fiat money into crypto. yes, after everything becomes legal. and the possibility of this fact will happen in the future.

I hate it whenever I have to visit the banking hall.The long queue alongside terrible customer services from the employees are terrible. With Bitcoin, I can get everything done within seconds.

people will complain about their deposit, transfer, or the other thing that make someone must be go to their place to make it clear. and it take much time to wait in line for some trouble

Two years ago I was an employee of a bank that went bankrupt. Naturally, all of his clients suffered, and first of all those who had a deposit with the bank and current accounts that held money. The state was able to return only some of the deposits to them, and the rest of the money was gone. If they were invested in, say, Bitcoin, many of the victims could increase their assets several times.

Banks have too many administrations that must be processed and not too transparent. I have experienced a double withdrawal of money but even though I only drew my cash once and this is really not relevant at all with the amount I took

The banking complaints system is surrounded by secrecy and dominated by the banks, says Wanda Morris, a consumer advocate with CARP.

"We're at a crisis," says Morris, who would like to see a major overhaul of the system.

Every banking complaint is another advertisement for bitcoin.

Biggest problem with the banks is the waste of time one should have to walk through to get a service. And after all this got currency in hands but not safer then digital as it can cause roberry etc. Digital currency can not be robed.

I do not think as you said, I for example, if there is a robbery happening at the bank you are storing money, I bet your money will be lost, no matter if you lose money or not but still have can But say banks around the world are fraudulent, recalculate the rate I have not seen, expect you to think again.

I only use the Bank to hold the money. I don't take out loans, mortgages, etc. And I think to keep money in bitcoin much more profitable. In addition, the Bank I need to pay large fees for transfers and storage. Therefore, I prefer bitcoin.

That's right, I agree with you about that, compared to the bank, my bank only used to store money for people around me to see, and bitcoin I still invest and use to do things besides storing money, but not. safe or profitable like bitcoin but it helps me a lot.

In the problems of the Bank and Cryptocurrency can not be separated from the innovation and advancement of digital technology which is currently developing more widely in modern human life today.

like in a Bitcoin transaction, there is no credit card number that can be collected, with Bitcoin it is possible to make anonymous transactions or without revealing your identity at all, with an efficient Global Payment method.

Example:
Bitcoin can be transferred from one bank to another within 10 minutes.
= (There is no bank that slows down the process),
= (There are no expensive fees),
= (There is no freezing of funds),
= (No one will ask where the money comes from and what the purpose of the transaction is).

in this case Bitcoin users, cross-continent transfers are as easy as making transactions with your next-door neighbor.
In essence, banks and crypto also need to understand the risks of potential cyber attacks and the privacy of their own users and remain vigilant during transactions.

Not really secure. Fiat money and cryptocurrency money have imperfections. No matter what you use, there is still a probability that your funds may get stolen by someone else. Meaning, as much as possible we have to do precautionary measures in order to reduce the risk of getting your funds stolen.

One simple example is the requirement of keeping a minimum balance to maintain an active bank account. In my country, if I want to keep an active savings bank account, I will have to maintain a minimum balance of 10,000 INR. If I fail to maintain that amount, bank will deduct charge of 150 INR for each day and that money will be recovered from your bank account.

Lets assume, your account balance is 9,500 INR on 1st November. Bank will deduct 150 INR non-maintenance change from that same account. So on 2nd November, your balance will become 9,350 INR.

So if you want to refill your bank account on 2nd november, you will have to add 650 INR to your bank account! That's an organized loot!! It's your money but bank will not allow you to withdraw it even in case of an emergency!! If you do, you will have to pay charges for withdrawing your own money!

I have lot of other examples available because I used to work in a closely related sector. That's just a teaser for you!

This is true. I really hate it when those banks keeping those maintaining balance. I am not sure why they have to implement this. Its fine with me if there a minimal maintaining balance. But most of this banks required you to have a month salary (minimum) maintaining balance. I encountered many situations from friends and family that they loss all their keep saving because they go below the limit of their account. Is this the way some banks earn? How about their costumes?

Hidden charges, no activity fees (if your money is sitting idle, no cash in or cash out for 3 months, you need to pay penalty), the minimum balance thing, too much time at the counter, and the common problem - the bank people never want to listen to you, they just start telling some bullshit that is not even related to your problem just after you say 3/4 words of a sentence.

I was simply blocked by my account and it took two weeks to restore it. with crypto-currency and bitcoin this would never happen
