I have had a similar notification today from Capital One, and CP has also from her M&S store card. They are all doing it. Presumably to help pay their bonuses for Christmas.

Lady Sparhawk & I have 2 joint accounts with Halifax I could save money for them - don't send one envelope to each person for each account, they must have used a whole rain forest to do this...

I have been with First Direct for donkeys years and can't fault them (yet).

Hubby works for Nationwide, at their Head Office.

Getting abit pee'd off with Richies Halifax account... I thought these new "Supa Dupa" save energy and recycle "Green" big companys are trying to premote a Save Paper Save Trees stint on the genral public.

I'd like to know why we are getting on an a daily basis on avarage 2 letters all full of carp and advert leaflets  Evil or Very Mad
Obviously we're not the only one's getting there cr*p through our door regular either. Just makes me so mad that if you owe them money for "Admin" costs (rather generated printouts!) it's all to pay there bloomin junk mail bill!  Evil or Very Mad  

I would quite happily re cycle some of the STACK of junk mail we've had from them if there MD was placed in front of me in a bending over pose!  Wink  Laughing

If you watched the clip above YUP! There customers do get 10% extra.. in junk mail!
And the only thing there saving is on Bulk Buy from the paper manufacturers lol!  Twisted Evil

Ive been with nation wide years and can't fault TBH, exept when I asked for a debit card... just a debit card for christ sake  Shocked to use online they said "No" not unless I applyied for a Credit card etc etc !!!

I don't want a bloomin credit card they where quite shocked as I was when I asked for simple access to my money via debit I was in abit of a mood when they said NO!  

I guess it's the same with all Banks and Building Sociatys now I recon still my Grandad had the right idea and stash your cash under the bath!
Because you end up paying any intrest you do get back in "admin cost" what a crock!!!

Im offa my soap box now  Embarassed

I have a debit card for Nationwide. I have only had one recently, I have been shuffling accounts about, but I didn't have to apply for a credit card.

I'm starting to understand my great-grandparents arguments for keeping your cash in proper cash at home.
