I liked it.
Another chapter detailing Harry getting new clothes/shoes/necessities would be nice. Harry could use this as a wake-up call to transition to a "Harry uses his brain" story. I love those. ;-)

I like this story, it's a good what if and it also points out that sometimes it's pays to be nice to others too !
The Crimson Mage.

Most muggleborn/muggle-raised would have probably had a different sort of introduction to the magical world than what Harry received from Harigid. I can see serious and strict McGonagall telling the Grangers in advance that the Wizarding bank is run by goblins who don't care for anyone else very much, that they don't like to waste time on pleasantries, to just go in and do your business and get out. And I don't see the goblins to bother to go out of their way to correct that perception.

While I agree with most of your Author's Note at the bottom of the story, Muggle-born/raise still might show fear or have prejudice of the different, the new and the strange. It shows true in the News daily whenever someone says something racist, sexist or other forms of bigotry.
Though a culturally created bigotry is much worse, as is seen in both HP canon and fanfiction.
