OK…so it seems that since I’ve started writing this blog all I’ve done is complain about this country and I’m afraid I have one more complaint! I promise to list some god points soon!
Much to my amazement I got my deposit back from my old landlord yesterday, which was a nice surprise as it doesn't happen very often here. So off I went to the bank to pay in the cheque. My bank (bank X) merged with another bank (bank Y) around a year ago and now has a different name. I went to a branch that used to be Bank Y as it is right under my house. How convenient I thought this would be. I queue for 15 minutes and reach the cashier only to be told that they have only changed the name outside the banks and on all documentation; you can’t actually go to a branch that used to be Bank Y if you were originally with Bank X! I apparently won’t be able to do this until June!!!!!! So if all of the branches now have the new name outside how am I supposed to which ones were originally Bank X and which ones were Bank Y! Only in Italy! In the end I managed to deposit the cheque which will only take 8 working days to clear! Not long then..................
