I can see why there is little enthusiasm with the Banks to provide these accounts.
I am treasurer of a small organisation and actually wrote a cheque this morning , leaving a balance of £50 ! Looking at the stubs I see the first cheque was in 2010 .
Where's the money in this for the Bank (in my case Lloyds)Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
