So in looking up banks to move my money to, i get a large list of community banks to choose from. These are legitimate banks. Real institutions that are FDIC Insured and were graded “B” or better by the IRA.
Well, NATIONAL BANK OF NY CITY was the first link so i go to they’re site. And this is what i find:

THAT is they’re site. Complete with hit counter (i was # 7237).

I was absolutely speechless when i saw this. We all know that your web presence is your face to the world. WHY oh WHY do sites like this still exist in 2010? I almost want to call and offer my services to these people. the pitch would be “You’re site is archaic, let me help.”

Boggles the mind….

There’s no street map but i’m pretty sure where we are now is in “The Alley” since we’re so close to the water.

I love these old flyers…

Bunch more photos (and more than one broken link) here.
