Co-op Cashminder Visa Debit Card

crazy_blonde

I recieved my pin number for the new account today, it said it was for a chip and pin electron card so I'm wondering if my card was prepared before the switch over, will have to wait and see.

Would this co op electon / visa debit switch over only apply to cards ordered on or after the 8th June?

hi

i just spoke to co-op
as it just a basic acc you
have to qualify for debit card

if system recognises your
appliciable for upgrade it will
be done automatically

in my case i have to sit and wait
they will get round to it eventually

i was told to check my credit
file to see if it had been updated
and cleared

hope that helps

I totally agree Flowerpot, I don't mind which card I recieve, I fully expect it to be an electron, I'm just happy I can go back to a bank account, it will be so much easier than using the post office and reinstating my direct debits will actually save me money.

Good points by all. I think that within a year Co-op will give everyone a new visa as otherwise one of the other banks will notice that people like us actually want a proper visa.

I am very loyal and would stick with Co-op as they have given me another chance but not everyone will be like that.

So what does that mean then getting better? Will they be running anoither credit check on our files? Seems a bit of a pointless task as it will still come back that we have a BK note on our files?

I dont think they will do another credit check as as you say it would be pointless. I do think they may do what Barclays say they do and that is if you maintain your account well they will upgrade you accordingly.

I have to stress though this is only what Barclays said to me i have no evidence of this at all.
