The post is written in the present tense, "if i have a large amount of money at the bank i have to pay negative interest rates" Sad
IF what you suggest is true, the quoted text would read thusly:
"if i have a large amount of money at the bank, and if the banks still charged negative interest rate on deposits of over €500,000, which they once did but no longer do, i have to pay negative interest rates." Sad

If that was the case, I would probably reply that as much as my heart bleeds for those with over €500,000 (£393,000) sitting in the bank (while half of the world is living on less than $2/day), life is unfair -- try to suck it up.
 

Yup, it's the wee lamb. Lamb, maybe go back and read what you're replying to, and your own posts. Take your time. Your language skills aren't great, and one area they really seem to fall down is when dealing with non-native English, but what megges said is perfectly clear. Desperately trying to read too much into what other people have said is one of your more obnoxious tells.

Incidentally, there are terraced houses down the street from me that cost more than £400k. The poor lower-middle class families who reside there will love to know you're so concerned about what they'll do when they sell their homes, should British banks follow this German example.
