minus-square eagleeyedtiger ( @eagleeyedtiger@lemmy.nz ) linkfedilinkEnglish3•6 months agoA decade is a long time… we only got 365 days a year banking less than a year ago didn’t we? I guess our market is so small nobody really cares to improve things and kiwis don’t like to make a fuss to get things more modernised.
