That's incorrect:

> The first bank contacted almost immediately with me and I respect National Bank of Greece for that.

Actually, to quote the article:

The first bank contacted almost immediately with me and I respect National Bank of Greece for that.

The second bank took another approach.

No, he writes that there were SSL related problems with two banks. The first one was the National Bank of Greece. They contacted him directly and were nice about it.

The second bank was the one that showed this appalling behaviour and isn't mentioned in his blog post, probably out of fear.
