I don't know if this is the right forum group for this. Is getting a curve card worth it? What benefits have you had from using it? What are the problems you have faced? This is also a very odd question, but what envelope did the card come in? Was it a plain white one or did it have the curve logo on it?

comments or opinions or campaigning from Moneysavingexpert (or Martin Lewis) on

navigating this…

If I start now but delay the switch date until after first Dd payment should have gone, should that be covered by the guarantee?

Reasonably priced wealth managers
Hey, when I see the implied costs and requirements of some wealth managers, it feels like some providers have lost the plot. Are there any wealth managers that don’t ask for minimum assets moved over of £500k or so? Just looking for better service and fx rates etc than standard retail banks offer these days. Many thanks
