Almost exactly the same story, different country. Long weekend, Friday I'm working on site and go to grab a drink at the shop and my card declines. I go to log into internet banking and I can't. I call them, and the tone goes from friendly to frosty out of nowhere.

Took us a full week to get a cheque (!!) that we could take to another bank to move all of our money there. Thankfully, I had just sold something online for cash and was able to live off that, and let my landlords and billers know that I was in the process of rebanking.

Since then I've made it one of my lifes goal to sabotage any benefits to the bank (Macquarie) since. I've so far denied them about $700k AUD in revenue by ensuring any time I see their name I shoot down the deal or find an alternative provider. Luckily they operate heavily in the commercial space. I'll continue to do whatever I can to hurt them. Fuck you Macquarie.

Thank you for naming the bank. I will make absolutely sure to avoid them and to warn others about them. Having something like that happen can be ruinous.
