What's in your wallet/purse?

I've always wondered why anyone would carry their National Insurance Card in their purse or wallet. What purpose could it possibly serve, it certainly dosn't work as a form of ID. I memorised my number many years ago and have never had use for the card since then.

I also do not routinely carry my Driving licence on me. It is not required by law, and in my opinon it displays far too much information, i.e address and date of birth. This information combined with all ones credit and debit cards could fall into the wrong hands either by loss or theft, and cause financial harm even before One realizes a missing purse or wallet.

And what's in my wallet/purse?

Egg Money Card
Barclaycard Onepulse (combined Visa and Oyster card)
Barclays Connect Debit Card
Nectar Card
£10
Tonights Lotto tickets

Thats all the cards that I need to get by on day to day basis. All other cards kept securely at home, safe from loss or theft.

Not really safe from theft. Or fire.

Does anyone have pics of any Coutts cards?

It's cool. I like the design.

it is a nice looking card. I like the boat and I like the visa hologram being on the front instead of the back.

It is a Co-Op Bank card. But donates to Greenpeace when you spend. They also do a platinum version.

I like the hologram on the front too as it is like that on my Co-op Cashminder card. think a lot of cards used to be like that a couple of years ago

The boat on it is the Rainbow Warrior I think. The one that sank.

yeah I don't know why but I think that cards look a lot nicer with holograms at the front. unfortunately all of the holograms on my cards are at the back.

Do you have pics of yours?

That card was issued 07/09 so I don't know if it has a hologram on the back now if it is replaced.
