Thats it, i am done, Blind-as-a-Bat has left the forum, for good this time, there is no way I can recover this account, as the password was random, and not recorded, and the email used no longer exits, nor can be recovered to recover the account, goodbye all ………….

Hi bat
Internet banking is slow, transactions can take a few days to show online so your available balance is not always a true record.
You can get an up to date balance though by ringing their telephone banking or using a cash point.

Sorry Bat just re read your post.
We opened our account on a Monday in branch and had the debit cards etc about 10 days later. But they did say if we needed to pay money in or take out we could do that in branch before our cards arrived.
