Avoid doing any financial transactions from anywhere except your home LAN or through a hotspot from your mobile phone. Don't use any link to access your accounts other than the one you saved yourself (i.e. never use a link in an email, website or SMS message). Follow this and your HTTPS transactions to your bank will be safe without a VPN.
