Collected thoughts on card design (Part 1)

Where does it say that?

I asked them. It also makes sense since HSBC’s cards also have arrows and they also worked with Alzheimer’s UK (which is Alzheimer’s Society. Various websites, including Santander support, call them Alzheimer’s UK)

Amazing shot, but where’s the worst 2022 :monzo: summer card - the Juicy Green?

(and no Coinbase card or BA AMEX :scream:)

Joking aside, that is seriously impressive.

HSBC card is just so weird for me. I like the simplistic approach and the artwork they’ve created with that template (in airports), but the card being vertical does it more harm, IMO. Dreading the day that grey and red card arrives for me.

HSBC World Elite and the Jade cards actually looked good with the new design, but again, it’s vertical.

While I’ll always pine for the lions I’ve grown to really like my HSBC cards. Even to the point I purposely bought a portrait wallet for them all.

@ndrw, superb collection :clap: Particular shout out to the N26 card. I wish I hadn’t binned mine when they left the UK. Easily the nicest bank card I had.

A small shoebox–worth of landfill. Meh. You send more than that to landfill every week.

Nice collection. Can you still get a Child & Co account?

Are banks not suspicious you’re committing some type of fraud with so many accounts opened?

No rules about how many bank accounts (or indeed credit cards) you can have, only what you do with them.

If it was unusual activity maybe and I’m sure a “switched out” marker is visible to other banks.

Banks, probably not.

some employers, potentially yes. I’ve worked in industries where having a lot of accounts might end up with you getting asked questions, mainly to ensure you’re not secretly in debt and hiding it.

But then again, if you can show evidence you’re not and just a bank nerd, they’re not normally bothered either.

Fair enough. I assumed there was some kind of negative reporting for account opening, as I’m sure on my experian report it mentions having an account opened within the last 6 months as a negative
