Perhaps I should start to write comedy

Let's for a moment think about it all.... I nearly get killed, I explain this to my bank... I explain that I'm in the most impossible situation, having to fight my own insurance to get a payout... then when I explained this to Barclays, who take careful note and then close my accounts.... it kicks off.... Barclays caused this nonsense, yet I'm having to explain the bizzare nature of it all... After 7 years of medical tests, a courtcase I can't pay for against my insurance... My solicitors choose a legal action against me. IN the meantime Barclays closed my accounts and wonder why I can't pay my mortgage. Medically they finally workout what happened to me... I'm made disabled, which takes a while to come to terms with.... The bank still needs to make an example of me... so tries to take away my home as I'm unable to pay them... Because they closed my bank account, destroyed my credit rating and I can't get a new bank account. if I wrote this as a script nobody would believe me... so is comedy the way forward..?
Barclays now claims they want to help, I ask again as I do every couple of months, for information why they took the actions they took... what process they followed how this was reviewed and deemed fair and just.... and I never get an answer...
If this isn't the plot a for a tragic comedy, what is.... and Barclays now says well if you don't resolve the issues we'll take you home away... Folks wonder how I'm able to cope with the relentless pressure, and the answer is simple. Barclays caused this, they have the answer and I have made an offer to settle it, but as a company they'd rather not listen as addmitting guilt and responsibility isn't in the play book... so they choose to make my life a misery and I choose to stand up to them....!
