According to one offshore magazine European Union Bank is a very bad choice for Internet banking. What they did was they assigned they named Lord Mancroft who sits in the UK's House of Lords as chairman of the bank. Only thing Lord Mancroft himself did not know a thing about it, although the bank marketing materials had a letter of welcome supposedly from that prominent person. So he is thinking of taking legal action against the bank.
I have at hand a brochure from "Shorex 96 - The Premier Offshore Exhibition" to be held November 20-22 in London. Day One features a section on "Offshore and the Internet" including a panel "Will the Internet Increase the Market Share of the Offshore Industry?" Featuring "Lord Mancroft, Chairman, European Union Bank, Antigua."
I wonder if he'll be there. If we are both there, I'll ask him.
Is there a little "*" next to his name which resolves to "Scheduled to Appear" ?
