Actually, the first bank we ever talked to about @Stripe was Irish.
They did everything short of laugh.

- epo 15y agoIreland's banks are run by clowns, makes a change for them to be doing the laughing.
- rmc 15y agoNow they are all owned by the state. So you have government beurocracy to deal with now. Smart Economy, schmart economy.
- _delirium 15y agoOnly because the private owners were so bad at running a business that they bankrupted them, though. It will be quite a trick to see if the state can run them even more badly. Quite possible, but the bar was set high.
- pc 15y agoNo, this just means it was a bad place to start :). We will definitely come to Europe.
