Here we go again, more branch closures!!! Do not kid yourself, this is all about making more PROFIT!!!!. More profit translates to a greater return for shareholders and nice BIG FAT BONUSES for their executives and board members. Banks save mega bucks by not actually having to physically deal...

David Bevan will be missed on Adelaide Radio. I particularly liked that he never shied away from grilling our politicians. Good luck David in wherever life takes you next.

Maybe we should take it one step further and make our currency the rupee, all because 2.7% of the population practice Hinduism. While we are at it, I like fish and chips, so can we have a national fish and chip day holiday. What a load of crap.

Sorry Bruce, but I think you will find that none of the Mosaic brands are being bought by Myer. The brands that Myer are purchasing are not owned by Mosaic.

My wife worked for both Katies and Millers for a total of almost 30 years. This was prior to Mosaic Brands purchasing Katies and Millers. I myself was a regular customer at Rivers. So pre Mosaic Brands ownership, these stores offered value for money clothing of reasonable quality. You got "Bang...

You are spot on with what you have said. As a former banker, I know how they operate.

No surprise to me. I always keep cash on hand. With more and more hacking and bank system outages, you cannot transact in those circumstances unless you have cash. In a cashless society, the banks and other large businesses will save billions of dollars, and the consumer will be the loser and...

I keep banging on about this, but so many large organization's led by the banks, don't give a Rats arse about the aging population, and their struggle to adapt to the lightning speed of technology change. Their only concerns are, more profit, cut expenses and the returns to shareholders, and of...

Sorry, but NEVER record your passwords in plain view. There are other ways to record them and keep them hidden. By recording your passwords in the way that you have suggested will immediately remove your banks" obligation to assist you if for any reason your accounts were hacked. One of the...

Totally agree with this idea. Brilliant!

Respectfully, I believe I have knowledge as to how banks work. I spent 25 years in the banking industry, 10 of those years were as a Manager within the Cards area of a major bank. Banks are always looking for ways to save money and increase profit. One of those is the demise of cash. The...

As a former banker, I can certainly see their argument around increased fraud. However, I also believe that this is also another step to force the public to stop using cash.. Banks NEVER do things just to help their customers.

I currently have a dispute with my Neighbour over replacing a very deep and complex retaining wall. It seems that this is ALOT more expensive than a fence and the Rules/Regulations and laws relating to retaining walls are much less clear cut. Even our local council will not give me clear cut...

Speed cameras in South Australia are not about saving lives, they are about raising revenue, not saving lives. I have no objection to speed cameras, it is where they place them. Example, where there is a change in the speed limit zone or at the bottom of a hill. They are never placed where...

I love Tony, but he has hardly been there for the last year. Once again, he has not fronted today. Perhaps he has personal issues we are not aware of. Anyway, time for a new era. I am hoping the wonderful South Aussie Charles Bryce gets the gig, or the equally talented Emma, another wonderful...

As Sharon proceeded without your agreement, I believe the cost is now hers.

In 1974 I joined the then Savings Bank of South Australia. It had around 150 plus branches statewide. Today it trades as BankSA (a subsiduary of Westpac). A handful of those branches remain but they have been merged with Westpac branches and co-branded as Westpac/BankSA.. Most banks are now...

Here we go again. Another way to increase profit with the customer being on the arse end of their experiment. Customer service????? What customer service??????

I live in Adelaide and am very familiar with Jeremy. Very pompous and full of self importance. There is very much a them and us quality about this man. We seem to have these people in Adelaide. Bob Francis was another one. A late night talk show radio host who took all he could for free and gave...

Just another Big Company trying to force cash out of existence, with this campaign being led of course, by none other than THE BANKS. As usual, they try to spin it with explanations such as " it will make our lives easier" or the old tried and true excuse of "We the consumers wanted it". Anyone...
