1 nationwide flexaccount (have it for the 0% commission when on holiday)

You should change it to a Metrobank one as nationwide flex don't do the 0% anymore.

The credit card is 0% commission for payments in Euroland.

Natwest
HSBC
Citi (£,$ and Euro).

The way banks treat customers I would never have just 1 account.

Have personal and joint current a/c with HSBC, a personal a/c with Natwest, an old and unused one with Halifax and a Tesco savings a/c so I can deposit cash in Tescos - nice and convenient.

Also have current and deposit a/c with Citibank in USD for use in the USA.

I have one Natwest current plus account, which is my main account, I have a Natwest first reserve account, which has my contingency fund, I have a Halifax Reward account for the free fivers, and also to get my 3% interest on my direct reward ISA, and I have a Lloyds basic cash account, which I am going to be closing soon.

I have one current account in my name only and another joint account with my younger child who is at university. They are both from the same bank and branch, and it simply means I can transfer money with immediate effect if it is required. I would hate to have a child with no money and in some kind of danger as a result. Occasionally I am owed money, so it is a two-way system, but only just about! It also means I can keep a quiet eye on how the money I contribute, and the student loan, is being spent ..... It has worked quite well on the whole.

As far as I know, the NW CC is free to use in Europe, including on the Internet.

Where did you purchase from?
