Hello! I was wondering on your bank card do they exclude post nominals?

    In my case, they didn't ask me about post-nominals and I didn't volunteer them. Some of my cards don't even contain a pre-nominal. For others, there was an element of choice as to how my name appeared, so perhaps I could have had them there if I wanted to do so.

    I've never been asked.

    But as said above, most of my bank cards don't even have a title/pre nominal, so unlikely they will include nominals. The number of characters are quite limited I believe.

    With RBS/Natwest you can request how you want your name to be displayed on your bank card, cheque book, paying in book etc.

    May I ask, as a 17 year old, what post nominals do you have? :huh:

    What would be the purpose of having any of them printed on a debit card? Get yourself some business cards if you need to make people aware of your qualifications.

    Why the heck does anyone want a string of qualifications on their debit cards?

    I can understand when someone wants Dr or Rev.

    Thats used as my title not as a post-nominal, though I would wan't to put all my qualifications on my bank card there simply wouldn't be enough space on it for them!!

    Why you would want them on your debit card is beyond me, get a business card if you want to show all your qualifications on something to show off to people.

    Only one of them is a qualification. The others are honours

    What kind of honours are they UK recognised honours? Even then its rare for them to be printed on debit cards.
