Money under the mattress?
Regarding the closure of St George and Westpac Banks at Umina, how selfish have they become?
After St George closing in Umina, I transferred to Westpac as it was local, only to find they were closing the Umina branch in December.
The reason I closed my St George account at Umina was I have limited eyesight and prefer to go to a teller instead of an ATM.
Going to Woy Woy every fortnight for my pension would have to be by bus as I do not drive anymore, so I was happy to move to Westpac because it was local.
So now, do I have to change to the Commonwealth, the only one left in Umina?
The banks have no consideration for the elderly or for people with a disability.
No wonder people put their money under the mattress.
I am disgusted.
