HSBC Visa Debit Card

Ha thats well cool.
Thats for Plus - thats the one you pay for yes?0 -
That plus account card looks awesome. Admitted right now I could not warrant paying for a current account, but it certainly looks a very nice card. Very swish.0

The benefits are worth it for me, I make use of nearly every extra service they provide with it
(I've even used the breakdown cover) 0 -

I am tempted just for the swishness... lol.
Hm the only thing I would really want is: 10% AER/Gross preferential rate on our Regular Saver (as well as the swish card)
And for £13 a month meh don't think so.0 -
Well it would cost £156 a year to have it. None of the benefits really appeal to me at the moment.
But a Barclays regular saver at 6% would have earned me £97 interest give or take putting in £250 a month. In that HSBC account putting £250 a month, it would make £161 interest. So you'd make £5. So not really worth it for the savings account, might as well open a Barclays reguler saver or a Halifax regular saver as you could make more interest.0 -
I must be on a different planet to you lot, it looks black and drab to me, not that it matters, it is a card, ... a card is a card to me.;)0

It does look rather sexy compared to some of the plaka cards around.
I know some people are neutral as to what their Debit/Credit card looks like but I think it is an image thing going on, same with mobile phones, would you prefer a sexy looking mobile or a 1980's stylie brick?
Everyone to their own I suppose.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.0 -

I am sure you are right about the " image thing " but how sad is that?
As for mobile phones, I just use a basic phone that makes....you guessed it...phone calls.:D0 -
Image is a big thing these day's, personally I am not too bothered but I like my toy's and gadgets.I am sure you are right about the " image thing " but how sad is that?

That's really neat looking card, I wish Halifax will have a nice card like that, currently their card looks like a budget supermarket club card, horrible!!!0
