Why in that absolute hell do people trust commonwealth bank!!
I've given up trying to understand the addiction Australians have to the Big Four banks. Even after all the scandals they just keep going back. Sorry, but I'm out of all sympathy now. The next time these people get fucked over I will just laugh very loudly at them.
Yeah. Same. I got with, ew why are you with them, if people tell me they're with the worst offenders. It's so easy to look up now, too. No excuse.
I need to find a way to rescue my Dolomites account.
Yeah that's how they hook everyone. It was fine when it was a publicly owned bank.
Wait, the dolomites program is still around? I was joking about my old account from before the bank was privatised.
Actually, I'm not sure if they're still allowed in schools, it's not been long gone, if it is.... looked it up, closed in 2022.
I had to go in-person to a branch with ID, but once I was there it was pretty quick.
lot of stupid and hateful people out there, look at the rise of One Nation, Labor still in Government, The Libs etc
Omg I could do some lengthy rants on the current rates of media illiteracy and the rise of one nation (supported by Rupert Murdoch and the want to turn Australia into the US) Gina who visits Trump regularly, backing Pauline financially.
Lotta old farts?
That's even stupider of them, they would have lived through the great scam stuff they did that saw thousands lose their life savings and retirement funds.
Indoctrination is a helluva drug, that's all i can say.
