Just to put into context how utterly insane the crypto landscape is, imagine going back to 2005 and saying this out loud to anyone. They would lock you up far away from society, and keep you sedated.
@selzero It's just so absurd, because unlike with #banking one can't decline funds.
So even if someone would know my IBAN & BIC they could technically sent all the ill-gotten money they want to it: Chances are my bank will just block the transaction and hand over the sum to a custodial account for investigators and unless I'd knew about it and ask for it, they won't even bother questioning me as suspect and most likely do their investigations in the background anyway.
psa to anyone with a #citibank account, they've introduced this new "simplified banking" thing that works out to a) zero interest on checking accounts b) new fees
Digital Customer Expectations in Banking: What should financial businesses consider in order to offer a service that will meet digital customer expectations from a bank and financial services?
There's a special hell for sites which have password requirements that are like 16 letters, one or more numbers, upper case and lowercase, at least one special character, and we disabled pasting/password managers
@foone extra super bonus for apps that also disable the system keyboard and force you to use their own, randomised keyboard to enter your password (in addition to all the winning conditions that you described) 🤢 #banking#Chinatrust....

NPCI stepping in to stop AePS frauds, suggests ways to banks
The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) wants companies offering Aadhaar-enabled Payment System (AePS) to bring in additional security measures to check rising incidents of fraud attacks on the network. In a notification issued to all banks and payment companies offering this service on October 26, NPCI wrote that just like mandatory security features on debit cards, banks need to introduce mandatory security norms for AePS transactions.
God I hate #FICO scores and their silly formulations. Paid off my car and house only to be penalized for doing so. Their excuse is that any 'closed account' diminishes one's ability to prove you can pay a debt regularly.
The enslavement of debt is their gospel and, I gotta say, is something we're now schooled to buy into.
The #indebtedness cycle is disgusting and I'm so done with it all!

Chase bank would like everyone to know that even if you tell them that you will never ever use their online system to open a credit card, they will continue to let people try, and will send it to the credit agencies every single time. Their answer is “just freeze your credit”.
No, assholes, how about you flag my info so that anytime someone puts it into your system you reject the application outright and it just stops there.
Trying to understand how it can take 8 or even more days to clear a bank cheque these days. Do they do it by carrier pigeon? I can send cypto in a matter of seconds to anyone with a wallet on the the planet. No wonder banks are going backwards.

If the central bank can set interest rates with the goal of making life better for the nation, what is stopping us from applying rent control to also reign in greed?

Mach uns noch HEUTE zur #BankDesJahres! 🏦 DISQde und ntv fragen bis heute: Wer ist die Bank des Jahres? Wir brauchen deine Stimme, damit wir den Titel erneut bekommen. 💚 #CommunityLove
Det er jo litt forstemmende å se hvordan bankene oppdrar brukerene til å klikke på lenker i e-post. Denne gangen er det Sbanken. Og tragikomisk blir det når anledningen er at oktober er nasjonal sikkerhetsmåned. De vil at brukerene skal klikk på knappen for å se etter røde flagg. Faren ved falske e-poster er ikke nevnt. 🙄
