Online banking security
My bank offers an app for online banking which requires either a fingerprint or Face ID as security to login. The anytime banking website needs a password and pin. Since all it would take is the threat of violence for anyone to be willing to log in and transfer money, it seems very risky to me. I don’t use online banking…

Need a throwaway digital bank account for interacting with ebay
Hi everyone! I am new here and need a bit of advice! I want to open an ebay account, just for buying, not for selling.

Had to happen at some point. Switched in the wrong account which had no direct debits into a new Barclays account hence not meeting the criteria for the £175 incentive.
