By the way if you click on the link to the story about US citizens being ditched by banks, there is a guy complaining of having been ditched by Barclays. That bank just got a new CEO who happens to be american and who was based in the US. I would be curious to know if a branch manager told him to fuck off too...

FWIW, the American Citizens Abroad have a short list of places to file complaints about being ditched by a bank. Not sure if it actually does anything but a lot of times these government committees and groups are pretty insulated from the real world and actually don't get the feedback about policies they are tasked with implementing.

Looks like it's ditched by US banks only. Not many US banks doing retail banking in Europe apart maybe from Citi in certain countries.
