As is the dormant DD
And cannot be woken to eternal life apparently..:)0 -
When you marry, you make a new will.
When you take out a mortgage you consider a life insurance policy.
In the midst of life we are in death.....
No need to make a new will when you marry, if you are old will contains a suitable clause and your circumstances haven't changed, would have been the default a few decades ago but the world is different these days.
A life insurance policy would normally be considered due to other circumstances than taking out a mortgage, key trigger is financial position and dependent rather than buying a property and taking on a mortgage. No need for a single person to take out a life insurance policy with a mortgage for example.0 -

I only have a phone bill. Even then, its £5 so I could switch the DD, just haven't got round to it! I wouldn't say its that unusual! Also, perhaps people are using Natwest for their cashback too :question::question::question:0 -

You will notice that I said "consider"......0 -
Is death _pale_ really at the top of people's minds when doing something as mundane as paying utility bills ?
How depressing.
Maybe one of the banks should do a survey to find out. You know,
Q.
When setting up a DD, which is most important?
A.
a) Ease of use
b) Helpfulness of staff
c) Implications of death
Maybe their marketing departments are missing a trick.
Nothing is certain, except death and taxes:(
