This idea/suggestion is Open. You can respond to ask questions or discuss the idea and either vote it up or down if you believe it should or should not be implemented, respectively. Popular suggestions and ideas will be considered by the development team to become reality in-game.
Proposal
extendable bank vault, and an accountwide 'shared' vault
Justification
easy transfer of items between alts, and banking space that exceeds the width of a player's arms
Motivation
too many puppies
first: extendable bank vaults, probably with a money sink, where an extra 50 slots can be added for 1M, then 10M, then 100M or something along those lines

second: a mission for the banking clan, possibly involving Plaguis lore, that would unlock a shared bank vault across an account - my suggestion would be 100 slots, so that it would be big enough to transfer a full backpack
 
Down vote at least part of it. You can get extra storage with player reward tokens. The rest may be coming in the city updates
 
I had similar idea on mind a couple of days ago.
Essentially shared bank across characters - 100-150 slots fixed no matter how many characters you have unlocked.

Additional slots can be rented at a bank account manager NPC at a reoccurring monthly cost.
If you do not pay the rent - the slots will become unavailable and you can simply not put new items in the bank until you either renewed it or took the items out.

Would help a bit with inflation since its reoccurring cost unlike the permanent storage extensions that come from reward tokens.

Can we add a storage wars feature? A bank vault payment gets defaulted on and we can bid for the contents in a blind auction?

not sure why that would have anything to do with a city update but i'm beginning to think you are downvoting me rather than my posts - i probably should have proposed the combat balance last, as i said i knew i would get flamed relentlessly
 
The storage wars part is pretty good. I think a shared bank would be great. housing storage isn't the same as a shared bank vault. i think its a good idea.
 
Shared items / credits on an account makes the banks make more sense too. A lot of new players ask "what is the purpose of the bank" and this would help answer that beyond "sometimes you have money but actually don't because its in one place not another." In the bank credits being accessible to all characters on an account (a common pool) would be a QoL helper for me, where one character may be grinding credits for another character's equipment needs.
 
The auction part has been tried and was awful. If you went that way I would say a raffle so anyone regardless of credits could get a chance at stuff rather than always being outbid.
 
That storage wars part is a neat idea
An account wide safety deposit box in the form of a storage unit(s) that you rent would be an awesome addition

Can use it to tease nar shadaa assets in world even, some sort of nar shadaaian storage broker setting up shop across the galaxy
 
It would be nice to also have a shared "Box of Achievements" so we don't have to character hop to use tokens, this would make it easier to use/spend/collect tokens across the account without having to pull out tokens, drop, or trade to your alts just to buy things from token vendors.
