I found a fiver in the back pocket of my trousers when I pulled them out of the washing machine.

Does that count?

Some years ago we wanted to open savings accounts for the children at a well known High Street Bank. Somewhere that the children could pop the cheques that doting grandparents handed out at birthdays etc.

(i) They wanted samples of the children's signatures ~ one was seven, one was two and a half and the other six months.  Banghead

(ii) They then asked for "utility bills" in the children's names to prove that they existed and lived where the application forms said.  censored:

The excuse was "Money Laundering Regulations"

We went elsewhere.

(The clue is in the capitals used in High Street Bank C***s)
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

I was going to cash in surplus $$$ some days ago at the Post Office "0% commission on foreign currency".

May be 0% but the difference between their buy and sell rate certainly makes up for it  evil:

We transferred some money from the UK yesterday... got a call from The Bank of Cyprus today asking us to prove the money was ours "because of EU money laundering regulations" otherwise they would have to send it back!

Bastard EU!  Banghead

The irony is / was that the Rastafarian behind me in the queue who also queried the exchange rate, then put down a wad of about $600 on the counter, smiled and said, "Ees jos monny, innit? he he"

Regulations?  eeek:
