Not only does this strike me as entirely illegal, it's also pointless as this mind-numbing exchange indicates: He asked if he could return later that day to withdraw another £3,000, but he was told he could not do the same thing twice in one day. EDIT: not a day goes by in which we don't learn about another restriction of freedom in the UK, seems like.Mr Cotton says the staff refused to tell him how much he could have: "So I wrote out a few slips. I said, 'Can I have £5,000?' They said no. I said, 'Can I have £4,000?' They said no. And then I wrote one out for £3,000 and they said, 'OK, we'll give you that.' "
