Joint Account thoughts
So my husband and I have had a Santander 123 joint account for around 8 years but looking at the app it suggests I've only made about £100 with the cashback in that time. Is it worth sticking with it? Or should I move to something like Barcleys or First Direct and just remove the cashback element altogether? I also have a…

Barclays Blue Rewards - Joint (only one), so which retailers?
On Joint a/c's only one cardholder appears to earn cashback, so I'd like to know which retailers are in the scheme in order to decide which cardholder to opt into it? Obviously if it's ladies clothes shops etc then it will make more sense to nominate me; other retailers may attract hubby more. I dont seem to be able to see…

Family loans
I'm hoping sunrise can help. My mother is in an assisted living centre. She pays rent and pays for her care. We've sold her house to pay for this. She's 98.

Santander Business Banking: Tax Details Request??
I've been with Santander Business Banking for 15 years. They've sent me an email asking me to "Update Sole Trader Details". It is a real request from the bank, not a fake.

Cash withdrawn from my account in branch by thief!
I’ll try to keep this short but basically last Wednesday very late night I noticed a cash withdrawal on my Nationwide banking app for £77. It didn’t say ATM Link like all my cash machine withdrawals would and I haven’t been in branch to take out any cash. Cash was withdrawn on Monday but that’s all I could see in the app.…
