HAHA thats what I also do when I'm out shopping and always seeing what type of card the person has when they hand it over to the cashier. Its so funny. I can't wait for my premier visa debit card - ill be waving in front of the person in the queue behind. Yes I am vein and quite sad :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

But saying that I was in Waitrose and the guy in front of me waved his Barclays Premier card around while his wife was packing lol - i thought poser haha

I don't get it why would you think someone waving a Barclays premier card looks like a poser when all it is 'is an added featured account debit card that costs more a month then the previous card.
Same with Lloyds premier account holders these are in no way status cards as 99% of current account holders can upgrade to these if they really want to but most decide they are not worth it.

Indeed the only real status cards are the Couts credit card and the American Express Centurion Card (The card is made out of Titanium!!!)

The HSBC Premier account isn't one you can just upgrade to by paying a monthly fee. You need to qualify for it.

I don't know about other banks Premier accounts, but certainly for HSBC it's worth having for a number of perks not available on the other accounts.
