Bank Flags Joke Payments

You've got a new Customer Service message: Sam (Starling Bank) Feb 9, 2022, 12:30 GMT Hi Joe, You have recently marked payments, 'taliban training', 'Jihad fee' & 'ISIS training' While we appreciate that you are probably having a joke with your friends, we are obliged to investigate such matters which is time consuming. Be assured your friend's banks will be doing the same. This is a polite request to ask you to cease marking payments in this manner. Thanks for your cooperation. Kind regards, Sam Team Starling

Скриншот письма от Starling Bank клиенту Джо: банк заметил шутливые названия переводов вроде «taliban training», «Jihad fee» и «ISIS training» и вежливо просит прекратить это делать. Шутка в том, что безобидные приколы с назначением платежа вызвали официальное расследование и внимание банков. EN: A screenshot of an email from Starling Bank to Joe: the bank noticed jokey payment descriptions such as “taliban training,” “Jihad fee,” and “ISIS training” and politely asks him to stop. The joke is that harmless jokes in payment references triggered an official investigation and the attention of the banks.
