Something stupid happened recently.

I conduct a small community orchestra and we decided it was time to set up a bank account as it looked like the group was a success.

I found a treasurer's account which looked perfect.

I applied in May 2023. I received an email saying more info was required, so I called them, and after asking some questions they said no, everything was fine.

Then I received the same email every day for a while.

But they didn't need any more info. So I gave up, I didn't have time for all that rubbish.

On January 19th 2024, EIGHT MONTHS after applying, six after the last correspondence, I suddenly received a text saying my application was successful. The paperwork arrived yesterday.

Then yesterday I received an email asking for my opinion on my "recent experience". I began to fill it in this morning. Half way through it decides "the completion window is now closed". I don't think it liked what I was saying.

So I'm saying it here instead because it's ridiculous.
