This is how it works in Europe, or at least the EU.

Very few people ever switch an account anyway. Something loke 0.4% of the market have evere done it.

PSD2 is supposed to make it even easier but I guess we'll see.

I think it was 0.42%... If you look into why the EU came up with PSD2 you should find out some more about it.

Honestly can't find it now. It may just have been something I heard around the office (I am currently consulting with Open Banking in the UK but do not speak for them here or anywhere else)

Cool, I'll try find it. I'm looking into PSD2-related things for my company at the moment.
