Sof: 

Actually Bill still works for Gringott's, and he is a member of the 
Order. When Voldemort returned, Bill requested a transfer from Egypt 
to Britain. (He was the reason the family went to Egypt. They won a 
cash prize and spent in on a vacation visit to see Bill.) In Egypt, 
Bill was a curse-breaker working on tombs to recover treasure. 

As for going into Gringott's, that gives me the shivers. I'd like to 
know more about the Goblins, but that bank creeped me out. Especially 
the underground aspect. I'd like to see more Charlie since Bill got 
more play in OotP. Maybe he'll transfer in from Romania now that 
word's out on Voldemort's return.
