“This is a lovely, small building society. Its nice to walk into a quiet place and know the faces you are talking to. It's usually a pleasant experience.I have to say unfortunately it was a different experience on Saturday 3rd June. When i politely asked to put some money into my savings account the lady (who i hadn't seen before) looked at the money and asked with suspicion "where did you get this money from?" To me it was an odd question because It's an amount regularly put into my account.In terms of it being a security measure...i would be surprised if an actual criminal would reveal anything to this sort of question.Initially i was a bit annoyed by the experience because i take pride in being a good person etc. Being a longterm customer you hope the reward is something different to having your character questioned when entering the door.”
