where am I?
Hmmm... Yes, I was kind of confused for a minute there but I've asked around and I'm definitely living in Ireland. So I'll keep talking about Irish banks if that's ok with you rainyday, but feel free to reply with more "Basic Research" or irrelevant reports about banks in other countries for me not to read.
I think the word "Unprofitable" is used not to represent a loss but to represent meagre or negligible profit. I was using it in the loss making sense of the word so apologies if I got my wires crossed on that one. But I stick by my point that current account holders who are paying fees (as most are in his country), are not losing banks money. If they were you can be sure that the banks would be moaning about it non stop. But they are not, and they are still touting current accounts to new customers. Which once again begs the question, why are foreign nationals having a hard time opening accounts?
