This is the text of a recent email from ME Bank. I have been a customer for a few years now and have not had any problems with them, but find something like this unacceptable. Surely the only option should be to opt in if desired, not have to opt out. I’m not even sure what connection they have with this mob and why they assume I would be interested. I have sent ME Bank a fairly blunt email voicing my concerns.
