I visited my bank's website and it hit me. For some reason, their crappy website design appears as more trustworthy than other, sleeker designs of modern banks. Why is that?
People are cautious around change, it's comforting if something stays the same. If the bank's website has been the same for 10 years, it must have been working well enough to not need replacing. A new flashy website is unknown and untested.
