“The bank wants to repossess my tree house. I’m convinced it’s a mix up from when I moved branches”

Banks have “branches,” and there are puns. “The bank want to repossess my tree-house. They say I haven’t kept up my payments but I’m sure it’s just a mix-up from when I moved branches” is a joke that was posted on Twitter by Fattus Blokus (and others) on January 6, 2012.
   
“If money doesn’t grow on trees, why do banks have branches?” is another bank “branch” joke.

The bank want to repossess my tree-house because I haven’t kept up my mortgage payments. It must be a mix-up from when I moved branches.
