    I've had my account for years, and get those benefits. Mind I did upgrade an account to Club when Vantage stopped being an advantage.

    I didn't know that you can only have one Lloyds account. I must somehow have slipped through the net when I opened additional accounts with them over the years.

  • I would recommend Halifax

    I would have said Lloyds until this month when they decided to change overdraft charges and I lost £60 for being over my limit for only 24 hours on two occasions.

    Um, no?


    Lloyds and Halifax are both part of Lloyds Banking Group anyway. It's like asking what's better between Audi and VW. One may be aimed at a different market but the money goes to the same place.
