barclays additions active upgrade

barclays have offered me to upgrade my account to this one for £15 a month. i wasnt called or anything so they didnt hassle me and i know its not very money saving to be paying for a bank but i wondered what everyone thought or if anyone has any experience.

for £15 a month it offers rac breakdown cover,sos home insurance, mobile phone insurance,travel insurance etc

any thoughts?
Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day, and for once I'm inclined to believe Withnail is right. We are indeed drifting into the arena of the unwell.

    The RAC is full european cover and the travel workldwide.

    If a joint account you get a policy each which can be handy

    We have it but we feel we benifit from the cover provided by thoise 2 the rest is a bonus

    THese 2 can be got a lot cheaper if you don't need the level they provide.

    Its up to you if you feel the benifits are worth it.

    Also look at the next level up if you have the right criteria it is not alot more and has a few usefull additions if you travel.
