Hi Sara,
You can't argue that you do not want to serve the notice period, because you do not have work. It goes against your manager, that he can't keep you occupied with work.
Considering that you are going to have a baby next month (You are a lady right? sorry, I am writing this with a guess taken from your name), you can ask for the early releving based on medical condition. Since you are ready to pay the notice period, your manager cannot deny this. This request then would go directly to HR, & your manager would not have any say in it.
Any way, may be an irrelevant question, but would you get maternity leave in the new bank job, so soon after joining?
Regards,
Amod.
