That doesn't sound too bad. I have to get a reference letter from my previous bank to even be considered for a bank account at the moment. I don't even want a bank a/c. The only reason to have the bank a/c is to satisfy the requirement to have a bank a/c! I've worked my balls off for the money I have and now have to jump through hoops to prove I'm not a terrorist drug dealing pedo.

That's draconian af! Where in the world is that if you don't mind me asking?
