Useless Bank

I'm overseas and I'm told that I need to go to a branch or give someone power of attorney in order to activate my internet banking. When I deposited that money, they were never concerned about where I deposited the money from but now that I need my money I must jump through hoops. They won't give me access to my own money but they'll give it to someone else as long as I give that person permission. What kind of nonsense logic is that? If you looking for a bank, stay away from this useless bank. I'm going to give someone power of attorney and then withdraw all my money and close all the accounts I have with them.
