Which bank was it?
2 comments

It doesn't look like anyone knows, but the author has mentioned it's NOT the National Bank of Greece.
National Bank of Greece (https://www.nbg.gr/en, @ibanknbg)
No, he writes that there were SSL related problems with two banks. The first one was the National Bank of Greece. They contacted him directly and were nice about it.

The second bank was the one that showed this appalling behaviour and isn't mentioned in his blog post, probably out of fear.

That's incorrect:

> The first bank contacted almost immediately with me and I respect National Bank of Greece for that.

What's incorrect?
If you read the article, the National Bank of Greece is not the one that harassed the author/their employer, the unnamed "second bank" did.
Interesting - looks like you are correct. Could have sworn it was different when I first read it!
Actually, to quote the article:

The first bank contacted almost immediately with me and I respect National Bank of Greece for that.

The second bank took another approach.
