Not really a bank, more a post office.
When I was a student, my mum signed me up for a post office account, rather than the posh bank accounts my college mates had, much to their derision. No cheque book, no cash card, just a "book" with which to get money.
It had two columns, one marked "withdrawl" and one marked "deposit" which the cashier would fill in as necessary. One day, as I tried to take out £50, the rather ancient old dear announced she had forgotten her glasses, and promptly wrote £50 in the "deposit" column. Result: me and my mates drunk for 3 days, and they all signed up for post office accounts.
