After the spectacular million-dollar burglary at a savings bank in Gelsenkirchen, the bank charged an injured customer more than seven percent interest for a bridging loan, according to the woman. “I would have expected that if the Sparkasse talked about support, that you would get this loan interest-free,” said 57-year-old Astrid Kaiser on Saturday. “I can pay it back if the insurance company transfers the money I’m owed to the savings bank.”
