I had no problem giving the bank notice - I gave them weeks of notice. I have a problem with having to justify the reason. They have our checking accounts, savings accounts, safety deposit box and mortgage, and have for years. They make plenty off of us. I was entirely pleasant. I just resent having to justify the reason for wanting my own money in a format for which they had weeks to prepare. Yes, that was irritating. If I want to paper my walls with it, or whatever - I don't really see it as the bank's business. It's their right to refuse to provide it in that format, certainly - and it would be my right to change banks.
