    I think the cards starting with 4659 are the 2 in 1 cards, no cheque ok function.
    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    Just phoned HSBC to order a new Visa Debit card to replace my HSBC Plus Maestro card. I was told that they have to send a new PIN out as well, as it's a totally different system and my current PIN will not be valid with the new card. She also sent me out a statement early, as one of the businesses that pay money into my account have asked for a copy of my statement, and as I only opened the account 2 weeks ago, I haven't got a statement yet.

    Got to love HSBC Plus - Hello Mr X, how can I help you tonight.

    From other threads on the subject, 4659 = All Authorised, i.e. like Electron.

    Does that mean my new First Direct visa debit card will have to authorise every transaction because it begins 4659?

    According to Wikipedia, 4659 10 range belongs to Lloyds TSB, 4659 22 range to Barclays - so what does HSBC have?
