Club Lloyd’s Fee Waiver

It seems Lloyd’s are waiving the £3 per month fee for Club Lloyd’s and Platinum Club Lloyd’s accounts for June, July and August.

It’s not much in the grand scheme of things but it’s better than nothing I suppose...

    Details in the small print here:
    Useful to know, as it means won't have to shuffle £1500 into the account for the next 2 months. Fees resume in September, based on payments in August 2020.

    Can’t believe anyone would pay it in the first place.

    Normally no one, probably. I expect though there will be people who are normally paid enough to get the account for free, but due to furlough etc their income might have dropped below the required £1500 pay-in and would have otherwise found themselves being charged £3.

    There is really no need to get paid £1,500+ to meet the monthly pay-in requirements. 
  • Cancel it then if you don't want to pay it!

    I know, but outside of this forum how many people would realise how easy it is to avoid the fee?

    Anyone who had read the T&Cs before applying for the account I would have thought.
