Come on it's a big company on the stock market and has lots of business going on in Europe. They are not getting broke...

Enron was worth billions, size doesn't always make your money safe. And being listed on the London Stock Exchange also doesn't guarantee liquidity in the case of a cashout panic.

Also, this isn't just a hypothetical, 80% of their customers WILL be pulling out every cent they have within the next week or so. Panic or no, people have no reason to leave money in their accounts.
