Hi,
 to do with the meeting, with the unshave man, at Barclays Bootle, last week.
 
 (Like I explained about, in the forwarded e-mail).
 
 I now remember, that he said, something like:
 
 'There's no _avenue_, that leads to an overdraft, for your acount'.
 
 (Something like that).
 
 I thought that perhaps was a bit strange use of the word 'avenue',
 (instead of e.g. 'way').
 
 Could he have been mocking me, (or something like that), since my
 address is 10 Keith Court, Keith _Avenue_, (in Walton, Liverpool).
 
 Just something I thought about.
 
 Regards,
 
 Erik Ribsskog

 Hi,
 
 to do with this mortage, that I'm trying to get, on my property, in Norway.
 
 I was at Barclays in Walton, on Monday.
 
 They told me to go to Barclays in Bootle or Lord Street, to speak with
 a mortage-advisor.
 
 So I went to Barclays Bootle, on Tuesday.
 
 There I got to speak with Paula Farrell.
 
 (About an apointment with a mortage-advisor).
 
 But I wanted to complain a bit here.
 
 I explained in the meeting, that I was there a bit late, because I
 couldn't find the branch, at first.
 
 (They have a big shopping-centre there).
 
 And then Farrell said: 'Were tucked away at the front'.
 
 I thought she was being sarcastic.
 
 And then she told me to tell someone that I went to the meeting with
 the mortage-advisor next week.
 
 What's that supposed to mean?
 
 Was it a threat or something?
 
 Why would I need to tell someone I was going to a meeting at the bank.
 
 This I wanted to complain about, since this could seem like a threat, I think.
 
 Also she asked about my new mobile-number twice.
 
 Which I thought was to many times.
 
 Also I went back there today, (Thursday), regarding an overdraft.
 
 Then Farrell wasn't there.
 
 But an unshaven blond man, sat there, and asked me what I wondered about.
 
 I explained that I had given Farrell the wrong answer about my
 Barclays-account, on Tuesday.
 
 Because when I wondered about an overdraft.
 
 (Since the Jobcentre are messing with me, so that I almost starve to death).
 
 Then I answered it wasn't a student-account.
 
 (Because I wondered if I could have an overdraft for graduates, that
 I've read about, some time ago.
 
 Since I've now gotten my degree, from Norway, in 2009).
 
 I told the blond man, that my Barclays-account was initially a student-account.
 
 (But that the meeting with Farrell was mostly about the mortage.
 
 So I managed to remember wrong, about the Barclays account).
 
 I had also brought with me, the business-card, of the Barclays staff,
 in Sunderland, (Neville J. Anderson), that I spoke with, about a
 bank-account, in 2004, when I studied, at the University of
 Sunderland.
 
 (Since I've had that card in my wallet, since then, by chance, I think
 one have to say).
 
 And then the clerk said there was no way I could have an overdraft.
 
 I think that's strange, that I can't have an overdraft, for graduates,
 when I've now gotten my Høgskolekandidat-degree, from Oslo University
 College, (in IT).
 
 And also, why don't their staff shave, I was wondering.
 
 That's strange in custommer-facing-role, I'd say.
 
 When I served my conscription-service, in the Norwegian Army, in 1992/93.
 
 We were told we eighter had to have no beard or a full beard.
 
 Nothing inbetween was considered 'kosher', (as I remember it).
 
 I guess working in a bank, as an advisor like that, could be compared
 with representing a country's army.
 
 At least I thought it was a bit strange, that the Barclays-staff have
 a three day beard, like we call it, in Norway.
 
 (Like Richard Gere, in Pretty Woman, I guess).
 
 Farrell also asked me if I had any days I couldn't have the meeting.
 
 And then she asked me if Friday was ok.
 
 And then she changed it to Friday next week.
 
 And then she didn't answer when I wanted to have the meeting later than 10 AM.
 
 So I wanted to complain about that Barclay Bootle aren't good at
 custommer-service.
 
 Thanks in advance for any help with this!
 
 Yours sincerely,
 
 Erik Ribsskog

 Hi,
 
 I was a bit in a hurry at the library yesterday, so I didn't notice
 that you called me 'Sir/Madam'.
 
 It's an insult that you call me Madam I think.
 
 This I wanted to complain about.
 
 Weren't RBS supposed to be sold to Santander.
 
 When is this sale going to happen, I was wondering.
 
 The sooner the better, I hope.
