The most unrealistic thing about this post is the bank not immediately blocking this user and dropping them from all banking services. Taking the time to investigate and not dropping the customer… Incredible

There’s no checkbox in a bank database for race. And there’s no special rules for certain zip codes.

Banks judge you on two things:

  • How much money you have
  • How quickly your money moves (slower is better for them)

I think the bank is smart enough to understand they were probably drunk and joking, if they were actually performing terrorist acts with the funds then they wouldn’t label them so plainly. Closing someone’s bank can cause a lot of issues in their life so it is more fair to warn them first.

I agree that is the reality we should live in, I’m not so sure that’s the reality we do live in as experienced by most banking customers.
