    Sometimes you have to take the small wins. GTR King now has one account paying a decent rate of interest, which is one more than most people.

    Don't count your chicken before they hatched. GTR King might just throw away his only interest earning account ever by asking for paper statements - you never know.

    Worth keeping in mind that trolls have all sorts of means these days. You just never know whether forums posts are serious and from genuine people.

    Well of course it can't be ruled out. Although I must say if this is a troll thread I find it infinitely preferable to the kind where an OP starts throwing their toys out the pram and screaming persecution at the first sign of criticism.

    Yes you can! I opened a second TSB a couple of days ago and they have already sent me a second debit card.
    You are wasting opportunities to gain interest (that's free money).
