At some point of my life, I had to transfer bigger amounts and in more stressful environment, so I understand your situation, but it is not about banks; it is about us.

>>>Edward, you can be so straight and exacting in your communications. You take literally what is meant as tongue-in-cheek, and treat flippantly what is meant in seriousness. Is English your first language? Maybe it's my fault for assuming you understand certain nuances in conversation that you really don't.

>I didn't know that. You live in NYC and your last name is Pickman, which is not uncommon.

Maybe that's your 1st mistake in anglicising Ed's name from "Pikman" (no "c")
I've known for ages, from Ed's grammar and vocab, that he's not native.
How about you? What part of Scandinavia do you come from?

>Why did you assume that I knew that English was not your native language? I only asked because of some of the things you seem to miss.
