Coventry Building Society participates in CASS, so the headline could read "Unique opportunity for CBS debit card holders to make £175".

According to the existing threads on this (MSE always post their news late, and never, ever, link to the existing thread!!!) they announced this in letters to account holders a week or so ago:

This will be a big inconvenience for the people who use these debit cards, which is bad news. But if it is a sign that a major building society intends to move away from providing banking services and return to basic building society services and values, then - as a long standing member of the Coventry - I would be encouraged.0

Yorkshire Building Society did the same thing two years ago when they closed all the Norwich and Peterborough current accounts after taking over the N&P.0 -
On learning of this change I messaged The Coventry and received a phone call later saying that they were still in the process of notifying customers and I should receive something in the post in due course.0

Had my account with them for over 10 years, with a debit card that I use, but still not had a letter, email or secure message from them informing me of these changes.0
