The 'Most impressive bank' in UK

A monthly survey conducted for The Times by Populus has revealed The Co-operative Bank to be the 'Most impressive bank', ranking above ten other banks and building societies including Nationwide, Halifax (HBOS), Abbey, NatWest and HSBC.

Those consumers polled were asked to rate The Co-operative Bank, Nationwide, HBOS, Abbey, Lloyds TSB, NatWest, RBS, HSBC, Egg, Barclays and First Direct on their impressions of their behaviour. A rating of 100 means consumers would go out of their way to buy products or services and advise others to do so. The Co-operative Bank came out on top with a rating of 63. Nationwide came second in the poll with a rating of 57 and First Direct (part of HSBC), came bottom of the survey scoring 43.

This success is a further accolade to add to the four industry awards that The Co-operative Bank and smile have recently received for 'Best Mortgage Provider', 'Best Online Banking Provider' and 'Best Student Account' at the Your Money awards and 'Best 100% Mortgage Provider' from Moneyfacts, the UK's leading independent financial website.

An article on the poll was published in The Times newspaper yesterday, click here to view the article.

Noy Nombor Bipod Shonket: Film Review

Another venture by renowned Humayun Ahmed. The film is a 100% meaningless movie. But this is not a drawback of the movie. Although the movie is completely meaningless, it does bring a lot of laughter. Good movie to kill idle time. Rating 6 out of 10. হূমায়ুন আহমেদের চলচ্চিত্র 'নয় নম্বর বিপদ সংকেত' তাঁর পরিচালিত অগনিত অর্থহীন ছবিগুলোর মধ্যে অন্যতম। অর্থহীন হলেও ছবিটি দর্শকদের মনে হাসির খোরাক জোগাবে। প্রথমদিকে ছবির গল্প খুবই এলোমেলোভাবে শুরু হলেও ছবিটি শেষ পর্যন্ত্য উপভোগ্য হয়েছে।

দুরের মানুষ

ধারাবাহিক নাটক ‘রমিজের আয়না’র থিম গান এর কথা আমার ব্লগ এ উপস্থিত করলাম আমার প্রিয় পাঠকদের জন্য। এ গানটির কথা আমার খুবই প্রিয়। ভাগ্যের খোঁজে ঘরছাড়া সব মানুষের স্বপ্নের কথা নিয়ে এ গান। দুরের মানুষ আসে অচেনা শহর যন্ত্র নগরে কাটে অবাক প্রহর অবুঝ চোখেতে তার কত না স্বপন অজানা বাসনা মনে গহীন গোপন একাকী পথে হাঁটে সে পাশে চলে ছায়া তার বন্ধু তো নয় অচেনা মুখের সারি ভীরুমন ভয় স্বপ্ন ছোঁয়ার সিড়ি দূরে সরে রয় দুরের মানুষ চেনা নিজেকে হারায় অচেনা নিজেকে দেখে চেনা আয়নায় The theme song 'Durer Manush' of drama series 'Romizer Ayna' is one of my favourites from Habib Wahid's voice. It speaks of the people who have left home for a better life. Transliteration of the song follows: Durer manush ashe ochena shohor Jontro nogore kate obak prohor Obujh chokhete taar koto na shwapan Ojana bashona mone gohin gopon Ekaki pothe haate she pashe chole chaya tar Bondhu to noy Ochena mukher shari virumon voi Shwapno chowar shiri dure shore roy Durer manush chena nijeke haray Ochena nijeke dekhe chena...

Made in Bangladesh: Film Review

Directed by Mostofa Sarwar Farooki, the film ' Made In Bangladesh ' tried to depict some of the social constraints in Bangladesh. The film started with ambiguous objective at the beginning. The first 20 minutes of the film didn’t help to build the plot at all. But it took a good shape as soon as the main character portrayed by Zahid Hasan took over the DC’s office. The film brought out the some of the worst characteristics of Bangladeshi people from different walks of life. It was an average movie, but it certainly was a good initiative to make a movie with social commitment.
