I got the same letter today, from Lloyds0

Well seems like they want all customers to go paper free & reducing there printing operations!If & when they eventually stop paper statements for good, I will move to another bank that offers that service for free!0

The way it's going thankfully, more money for the bank, share price higher, good for us. Less chopping down trees for pointless paper copies that are a massive security risk for the user when the data / statement is available immediately on the web/app. I hope they start charging for the people who want to cost the banks moneyGTR_King said:Well seems like they want all customers to go paper free & reducing there printing operations!If & when they eventually stop paper statements for good, I will move to another bank that offers that service for free!Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

The banks do need to make more money off us lol 😂
they gotta claw some money back, charging for paper statements is the way to go! Other countries do this already1 -
seems fair enough. Most people don't want paper statements so printing for the shrinking proportion of those that do costs more.

Agreed if banks charge for example £3-5 a month for proper quality statements that would be better
that way more people will chose online instead1 -
how do you mean by proper quality statements? They all say the same thing, just on paper rather than onlineGTR_King said:Agreed if banks charge for example £3-5 a month for proper quality statements that would be better

The biggest advantage of online (for me) is I check mine daily. Waiting a month for it to drop through the door is too long.4 -
Paper statements are good if you are old because when the time comes and your executor needs to apply for probate they will need to know if you have given any gifts in the last seven years
So either the executors apply for the bank statements when they need them or you just get them and save them up for your executor0
