RBS 'Computer Glitch'

[Freamon]

I reckon there's been a huge electronic bank run and they are fecked, remember the people with the real money know about stuff that you and I will see on the news net week.

Not impossible.

I'm sure Natwest won't worry about losing some of their retail banking customers due to this, means they can close a few NW branches that are close to halifax branches

[minestrone]

I had a sniff at one there last year, low rate if I remember, ~£300/day.

Contractor I know has been there for 2 years now, his first contract and moved through 3 different roles in different teams

Know quiet a lot of people who worked there, like 10 years ago, apparently they would go mental on you if you were in after 9. Know someone who walked out of the office after getting dragged into a meeting to explain why he was 5 mins late twice in a week. Really skilled guy as well.

I really do suspect they have lost some incoming transaction information from the whole bank system during the period between upgrade and rollback. Why would it take this amount of time to update the balances meant to be in accounts if it was all fixed?

Bob is probably parsing a 20 gig log file for sort codes, account numbers & amounts as we speak.

[Diver]

I think they have simply been focusing on the wrong sort of redundancy

[minestrone]

Maybe the system went self-aware.

[Diver]

Maybe the system went self-aware.

and developed an inferiority complex

I now have online access to both my NatWest accounts again!

There is a warning that account information may not be up to date

[bless 'em all]

Maybe the system went self-aware.

and realising it's purpose ...
