BOM Bank

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to BOM Bank one morning and exclaimed, 'This place is cursed!' Curious onlookers gathered as he pointed towards the entrance. 'Why?' asked a neighbor. The driver shook his head, ‘Because every time I deliver here, my coffee gets colder before I even get inside.’ Finally, someone suggested that maybe the thermos was faulty. So the next day, the delivery guy brought two coffees—one for him and another for the manager of BOM Bank. To everyone’s surprise, both cups arrived ice-cold simultaneously. Moral of the story? Never judge a bank by its coffee temperature.

2. A neighbor was watering their garden when they noticed something unusual: every morning at precisely eight o’clock, a small bird would perch on the ledge outside BOM Bank’s front door. Curious, the neighbor started leaving out seeds each morning. Soon enough, other birds joined in, and before long, BOM Bank had its very own impromptu bird sanctuary. The only thing missing? A sign reading ‘Welcome to our flying branch—no fees for finches!’

3. At dawn, a delivery driver approached BOM Bank’s front door and stopped abruptly. From inside, he swore he heard someone humming ‘Happy Birthday’ in perfect pitch. Curious, he peered through the window and saw nobody. Then, from behind him, came another soft note—this time, a perfect ‘doo-wop’. Turning around, he found an empty street. Shrugging it off as a prank, he drove away. Only later did he realize that his own dog had been sitting next to him, happily singing along.

4. At sunrise, a delivery driver approached BOM Bank’s front door and stopped abruptly. The vault doors were wide open, but no alarms sounded. The delivery driver looked around suspiciously, then noticed an old man watering his garden next door. ‘Hey,’ he called out, ‘did you see anyone?’ ‘Nope,’ replied the neighbor without turning, still focused on his roses. ‘But I heard tellin’ tales of ghosts haunting banks round these parts.’ The driver shook his head, laughing softly as he walked away, thinking it was just another urban legend—until he realized his truck wasn’t locked.
