To be furious with Lloyds online banking?

[Keyansier]

I logged onto my internet banking with Lloyds Bank and upon signing in was greeted with a message about The Queen passing away and giving solitude to Lloyds bank customers. Erm, does anyone else think that this is slightly WTF territory? How dare they assume their customers feelings? AIBU to think banks should not be giving out political messages like this? It's okay to say if they are sorry for someone dying, I'm not expecting them to be someone's pro-death, but AIBU to think they should stay out of giving what might be seen as provocative statements like this to people that may be against the idea of the Royal Family?

People (myself included) think it’s odd you’ve singled out Lloyds when they have done the same thing as virtually every company out there.

I get it, Lloyds was the first/only one you had seen when you started the thread. Now many others have been mentioned. Are you equally angry with all those companies too? Or are you starting to realise that it’s perfectly normal to express sadness and offer condolences when a well respected and much loved monarch has died? You don’t have to like it but surely it’s not worth being angry about? I think you need to let it go.

If you weren’t mad then you probably shouldn’t have used the word “furious”. If you had simply asked that question I think this thread would have been very different… 🤦‍♀️

@Keyansier She banked with Coutts, which is part of NatWest.

not mad, just furious? Oh ok

But your thread title says you were furious 😂

I got annoyed with Boots.com online yesterday. The one place I was hoping for some peace. Boom! In all greyness.

I wrote the thread title in advance before upon time for reflection.

@Keyansier So how do you feel now you’ve had time to reflect?

@mam0918

I agree with you. She is literally on the money. Of course banks are going to mention it.

I dont feel like i have to answer to you? @MNHQ do you agree?

Love these threads when 90% of people say you are unreasonable but the op goes with the minority they says they aren't

Getting the wine and popcorn ready for a good laugh at the comments because I have nothing else to do tonight.

😬 of course you don't have to..... but tagging hq in?!

This is so going to be deleted as not in the spirit

Fair enough. I mean, you started the thread. But if you don’t want to discuss it any further then that’s obviously your choice. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Sorry for feeling the need to defend myself? Didn't know it was controversial to do so.

Maybe no one gets your point because you don’t have a point babes x x x

How are you “defending” yourself by tagging MNHQ?

It seems to me you’re just embarrassed you behaved this way and want the thread deleted because it didn’t go your way.

Defend yourself against what? It was a simple question. Was it really that offensive? I was simply trying to clarify as you have contradicted your original post. I’ll leave it now though as I don’t want to upset you. Sorry if I did.

Hmm..wonder how many agreeing with you, didn't have a problem with the we stand by BLM statements.

I dont feel like i have to answer to you? @MNHQ do you agree?

😂😂 it's like the teachers been called

OP. Are you ok hun?

What specifically has hurt you? Was it Prince Andrew?

If not. Scroll on by. You've also said you're done twice now, yet here you still are, being all furious and stuff.

Melt.

Oh, and as a fellow Lloyds Bank customer, who hasn't logged on today, I say well done them.

These messages are literally everywhere. She was the Queen of our country for 70yrs. If there is anyone out there getting offended over a message on a website about her death they need to get a grip.
