Lloyds Silver Account

Options
Got a bit of a shock this morning to receive a letter from Lloyds to say their Silver account charges have gone up. It was £7.95 , now they`ve put it up to £9.95 a month!.
It comes into effect from the 1st November. What a rip off, I will be shopping around for something else. I suspect it is to cover the payouts from the PPI fiasco.:mad:

    Lets see the mobile phone insurance is covered by household policy, I can get the same AA cover for £29 a year and in terms of travel to Europe I cannot even remember the last time I went there.

    No... I'll stick with my Classic Vantage account ;-)

    Are you saying the account benefits were previously worth £7.95/month and not a rip-off?

    Oooooooooo a whole £2 a month more???

    Big whoop-de-doo! Still great value...
    I spent 25 years in the mobile industry, from 1994 to 2019. Worked for indies as well as the big networks, in their stores also in contact centres. I also hold a degree in telecoms engineering so I like to think I know what I’m talking about 😂

    Have you seen the different benefits... added & removed.
    Can I find out my credit score?
    You do not have a single credit score or rating. Different organisations take different information into account when working out your credit score and may have different scores for different products. (Kindly from Experian)

  • After speaking to friends they tell me its still a good deal compared with some of the other banks!. So I shall hush my mouth and be grateful to the banking institutions.;)

    I take it no-one knows what's changing yet?

    The website has details here. Gold is also increasing in cost, but the two top tier appear to be remaining the same cost.

    More than likely that is only for the first 2 months.
