- jbverschoor 5y agoBanks are free to accept, reject, or kick people. Not just there. Also here. Banks, PayPal, all the same shit in terms of exclusion and power imbalance
- KingOfCoders 5y agoIf everyone has the right to a bank account, bank cant't reject or kick people.
- jbverschoor 5y agoThis already is the case in the Netherlands. Don’t you understand? The system is broken
- KingOfCoders 5y agoNo I don't understand.
- jbverschoor 5y agoHere in NL, everybody is "entitled" to a bank account. However, banks can, and do, freely reject people. They will block and ban your account if they want to. For businesses it's even worse. So even if everybody has the right to have a bank account, it just doesn't work like that.
