"Musk's criticism of ING Deutschland came as a response to the bank's comment to a Tesla shareholder. The shareholder, Maximilian Auer, noted that he has not received a response from the German bank's customer support on how he could vote with his TSLA shares. In response to the Auer's comment, ING Deutschland confirmed that it does not offer such a service."
""We do not offer the proxy voting process or the transmission of a control number. There is no legal obligation to do so for general meetings under foreign law," ING Deutschland wrote in its post. The firm's reply received a lot of criticism from users on X, with many stating that such comments could drive clients away. Elon Musk later weighed in with some strong words of his own, stating that the bank is effectively denying shareholders the ability to vote."
