Premium bank accounts

Sorry if this is in wrong place - am first-time user, but was prompted by your list of premium bank accounts which doesn't include Barclays. I changed to the premium account when 70, as their travel insurance runs to 80 years; their RAC cover applies to both of us on the joint account, which makes it good value; most impressive I have £1000 overdraft availability with zero interest, and this means I can top up my account from savings (which I need to do, being on a poorly pension) only once per month (which can be an advantage, depending where your savings are). Plus I get gadget insurance on electronic gizmos of various kinds, not just the mobile phone. MSE should check this out, it seems good to me. Oh, I'm just about to use their will-writing service also.
