That is almost 5,000 families which are affected. Our guests refer to dwelling homes but for someone who has one property, it is the same as having a dwelling house because there is an impact on his or her everyday life. I know people who are absolutely distraught at the way they are being dealt with by vulture funds. Once KBC sells off to Goldman Sachs, for example, is that its responsibility disposed of and a line drawn under the matter? Does KBC ever check to see what is happening to the people whose mortgages have been sold? Does the bank feel any responsibility?
