    I think Santander Select is the best looking debit card. As for credit card, has to be the Amex (Gold / Platinum are both nice). Close second is Nationwide Member CC. 
    I hate the Nationwide member credit card.  It looks so cheap and nasty with that slogan splashed across it: "Building society, nationwide."  Fortunately, I've still got the Select credit card, which is nothing special, but which looks much better than the member credit card.

    I like my Nationwide Credit Card.  It's quite minimalist.  I can barely see the slogan though - I think you need to hold it in a certain light.

    My worst cards are my Natwest Debit cards though.  They've always seemed to peel, and the newest one now has flat numbers which looks cheap.  The details are also hard to read because of the pattern.

    Halifax Clarity cards but I think they have changed the design now. 
    Sainsburys card and NatWest BT purple card. All 3 are good but I did like Halifax one overall. 
  • I used to like the RBS debit card in the good old days 
  • Love the portrait starling teal coloured cards

    I rather like the Natwest Solo account. At the time if you were in your 30s and still had this card shop assistants would know you've been successful in life.



    i assume your being sarcastic lol,

    I've always coveted the Amex Rewards Blue card to be honest, absolutely beautiful piece of design. 
    That is the one I have and it is my favourite. It started out as a white background and then they changed it to transparent. A lot of people comment on it.  My least favourite was the M&S debit card pictured earlier.

  • I think curve cards look very sleek!

    Can't find an online image but the new M&S debit card is grey overall, thank goodness they have done with that awful 'busy' best of Britain image which made my brain hurt.
