I've just opened my second Classic Plus Account. I take it I don't have to trot back to the bank with my ID. I'm assuming the second account will just appear on my online banking. If so, how long will it take to appear?

Paypal payment in foreign currency
Is there any way to make a payment on Paypal in a foreign currency without them converting it into Sterling for you? My credit card company offers a better exchange rate than they do. If I could just set up another paypal account denominated in US$ that ought to do it but I'm not sure if that's possible. Thanks.

Lloyds Bank terrible customer service/care
This is a bit of a story to bad mouth Lloyds. I had a planned overdraft of £500 which I am well in to. Lloyds changed it so that there was a monthly fee and interest on this.

Not going into the whole religious thing, apparently its open to anyone as the UK says, so worth a switch, though I don't know how long the bank can support it. Not allowed to post links but look…

On one hand the cash is there so I could click "buy". On the other hand we have all sorts of future expenses to think about such as…
