Is Barclays the only bank that let's you personalise your Debit Card with your current account etc?? Do any other banks do this?? I just think it's a good idea

What do you gain from a personalised debit card? Why would you want to pay for a personalised debit card (don't think you are not paying for it)?
Would you gain more from a current account that pays you interest when in credit? One that gives you cashback on cash purchases and/or direct debits? One that gives you a small interest free overdraft? One that charges you the lowest overdraft rate in the market? One that gives you access to industry leading savings rates? One that gives you free travel insurance? One that gives your mobile phone and car breakdown insurance for a as mall monthly fee etc etc etc etc?

Probably just too expensive and time consuming, and I guess a lot of people don't bother with it, I know I haven't.Credit 'Score' - Don't buy the credit 'score' that Experian, Equifax and Noddle want to sell you. It's an arbitrary number that means nothing when it comes to applying for credit.
ALWAYS HAVE A DIRECT DEBIT SET UP FOR THE MINIMUM PAYMENT ON YOUR CREDIT CARDS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU PLAN TO LOGIN AND PAY EACH MONTH.0 -
I just thought it was a good idea... But I see your point that it might be to expensive etc. I suspect barclays will stop it soon..... I am happy why my bank (HSBC) just wondered thats all. Don't think I will move banks at all. maybe open another A/C If have very good offer etc0
