Australia's biggest bank has paused its plans to charge customers a $3 fee to withdraw their own money at bank branches around the country, a day after it was announced.
“We feel that we didn’t get the communication right on this, and we want to take a more individual approach,” he said.
“We tried sneaking it through, so our next approach will be to personally say fuck you to every customer as we charge you in a few months time once everyone’s moved on.”
What fucking communication is there to get right on being greedy money hungry bastards?
Is the amount they earn on interest from our peasant accounts not enough to cover a few seconds of a teller manually withdrawing their money?
Is the $9.48 billion in net profit you made last financial quarter not enough?
Fuck you CommBank, and fuck you personally CommBank Head of Retail Banking Services, Angus Sullivan for spitting in the faces of Australians.

A cost of cash conversation. Trying to cover the ever increasing cost per traansactiin for the small nunber of cash transactiins and possibly preempt the RBA stopping them milking so much from credit/debit fees where they can recover costs
As to being money hungry we’re in a neo liberal, capatilist economic system. They’re supposed to be money hungry, it’s how we incentivise. If you want more government oversite, or government institutions competing, you’ll need to stop voting LNP or ALP and start voting Green. Until then, more of the same. Less competition and more enshitifaction is the only outcome possible as this continues…
@nath@aussie.zone are our federation woes finally over? (I saw the announcement, I thought it’d take a while to get back to a place of instant or near instant federation)
You could be right in that in some edge cases federation has caught up, assuming that this was an edge case affected by the federation issue and not just something we hadn’t observed before.
I crossposted an az post to lw today and I can see some comments and votes on the lw post have not federated back to az yet. I think it’s still about 5 four days out.
Update: Federation with lemmy.world users appears to be four days behind now.

Wow, a lemmy.world federation instantly?

It may be because Deceptichum is on quokka.au and that instance may not have federation issues with lemmy.world.
Oh that’s probably what’s happening, you’re right
I feel like in the past that wasn’t a thing though
