I recently went into the only branch of my bank (HSBC) in the nearby town and found that the counters were closed; only 2 people running it where there used to be at least a dozen. Thought that might be due to the Rona. Today I got a letter to notify me that my branch in the nearest city was closing. There used to be several, now its down to one, as far as I can make out. I also got a call from my doctor's surgery inviting me to get the vaccine. No thanks, bye! Explains why the lockdowns are continuing as far as I can see.
The world is changing, Thank God for Trump. Stay strong patriots and keep praying!
Good, but one thing we can all do is to use local credit unions.
Better check into your credit union. You will probably find it is owned by a bank.
You know i never looked past the initial trust. Our credit union is owned by a credit union trust. But that trust is owned by a bank. Hard to avoid isnt it.
The charters are interesting if you follow them to the source:
