And you do that so much that you actively complain about the slow banking process? I can't remember ever needing any money to be transferred right this instant, other than the rare delivery pizza treat. Sounds like you're pretty well off if that's such a common occurrence.

Yeah.

Also digital purchases, I don't want to wait a day for a download. Hell, even with regular orders, I don't want to have to deal with having to plan my order in advance around the weekend just so my stuff arrives on the next available shipping date.

So yeah, unless it's instant it's not really an alternative, it's a downgrade.
