    I’m not sure about 100% operations, but when you open a Nationwide Current Account, they provide the option to switch the name on your card to solely your first name and surname (removing titles).
    Nationwide have done just that on my card including putting on ESQ.

    In a nutshell, I'm not that worried about using Esquire though there's a personal reason as to my prefernce in it's use. All I would like is the option to leave the title Mr out of my name. 
    Are you a "Freeman on the land" by any chance?
