New Lloyds Premier current account
Looks like Lloyds is going to launch a new Premier current account at the end of this month which will replace Lloyds 360 which never made much sense anyway https://www.lloydsbank.com/lloydsbank360.html

Nationwide £100 fairer share payment
I've looked on the first 2 pages and found nothing & I'm not going to continue delving back plus I don't like the search feature on this forum compared to the old MSE forum. I find it clunky & terrible. Basically I forgot to ask about this a few week ago. How was this payment determined? Because it's baffled me. I handle…

Burner account advice?
I have not yet tried switching accounts to get the perks as advised on MSE, I've just read the advice on setting up a burner account to use for this purpose instead of using my main account (that would be a fair bit of work with payments in/out arranged). Is it possible to get any perks for setting up a new account or do…

Cannot use Chase on new phone!
Got an iPhone 17 today. All apps transferred. Went to login to Chase account, which I keep for my shopping spending. I was asked for my phone number but wasn't accepted.

Santander Security is OTT
I have just set up a Santander account - partly but not only for the bribe. But their security is over the top - facial recognition/voice matching/endless codes and a really cluttered, messy interface in the app or online. I refuse to give anyone my biometric information - it's bad enough that the state has it - please can…

Missed out on Santander reward
So, I switched current account to Santander in march. Just popped into a branch to see why I haven't received a switch reward to be told that I didn't have enough qualifying direct debits on the account, only one is a "household" direct debit. Is have thought my union membership would count as one! Frustrating, I'll just…

Barclays Switch Incentive Payment Rejection Appeal
How to get Barclays to pay up with the £200 switch incentive if you took longer than 30 days from opening the account to get a switch completed.

Coop packaged bank account
I looked hard for a packaged bank account, struggled to get one that suited, and eventually settled on the Coop. I've just had an email to say that they are reducing the cost to £12 a month from £18, and they've increased the family coverage for mobile phones. They've also removed currency conversion charges for debit…

HSBC SCAM 08007838422
Please be aware that 08007838422 appears to be used in a scam. An HSBC agent confirmed to me today (25/06/2026) that this call was not genuine, and they reported the number internally. The caller was very convincing, claimed to be calling on behalf of HSBC, and spoke with what sounded like a native British accent. He…

Anyone else having problems with using their Co-Op Debit card online recently?

I want to swap banks but have no photo ID. Quickest solution?
Aged 60+, but no passport, because I’ve never been outside the UK, and driving license is the old paper style. A quick google suggests an upgraded photo ID driving license, might suffice, but looks like a passport, would be required. Passport looks to be a 10 week process. I guess that’s the route I’ve got to take, unless…
