> UK banks [...] used to be the scum of the earth They still had chip&pin before US banks, and dropped unsafe cheques before US banks. The US banking system, afaik, did one thing better: credit cards. But since the '00s, European ones have been just as good and often better. | ||

Oh, I never banked in the US, so I can't comment on them from a consumer point of view. > The US banking system, afaik, did one thing better: credit cards.
