Burnley Savings and Loans (BSAL) officially opened its doors in September 2011. The company was created by local business man David Fishwick who had noticed that people were finding it increasingly difficult to obtain loans from their High Street Banks. He decided that he could help, and created Burnley Savings and Loans Limited, trading under the slogan “Bank on Dave!”, to return to the basic model of old fashioned local banking.
Since the Channel 4 Series "Bank Of Dave" and the popular "Get Rich Quick" series the cameras and filming just hasn't stopped as Dave continues to help the british public save money and find the best deals.
It’s Dave versus the Goliaths of the banking world as Channel 4 follows one man’s fight to bring old-fashioned banking back to the High Street. With the global financial system in a mess, bankers in disrepute and their customers feeling short-changed, straight-talking minibus supplier Dave Fishwick has had enough. If the high street banks aren’t lending enough to keep the economy going, why doesn’t he just start his own? Surely it can’t be that difficult? Catchphrase ” Hi i’m Dave from Burnley”
Dave Fishwick is a self-made, straight-talking man from Burnley who hates the banks. Published to tie in with a Channel 4 series of the same name, this is the story of his attempt to set up a simple, no-nonsense bank that actually cares about its customers. Dave plans to put hundreds of thousands of pounds of his own money into the enterprise; he will offer his customers a far better rate of interest than they get on the high street; he will lend to struggling local businesses that the banks don’t want to know about; and he aims to bring the Bank of Dave into profit within 180 days. If he succeeds, he’ll give whatever he makes to charity. If he fails, he’ll make a terrible loss and ruin his hard-earned reputation as a successful businessman.
Can one man really take on the banking giants and make a real difference to local businesses and his community? Dave Fishwick certainly hopes so.
