Don’t know if this has already been mentioned but I just received a replacement hot coral investor card. No longer says investor on the front, just on the back. Also removed the investor text from the Apple Pay card when I activated it.

Not embossed though so swings and roundabouts

Happy birthday!

The black card was the worst imo, at least the older version 2 years ago or so. Had a weird texture to it.

My gold and space grey metal cards :pinched_fingers:t3:

Thanks!

I contemplated getting the gold or the space grey, but I already had the plastic version (of the space grey) and wanted the black. When I have a spare £40, I might get the gold.

Is Visa infinite just their equivalent card tier to the MasterCard World Elite?

9415

Yes.

Ref: Black Metal Card: I disagree, whenever I have used the card physically, the retailers/bar staff have all commented on just how good the card is.

Yeah, just activated my replacement investor card. Was disappointed to see the word investor removed from the front if I’m honest

Isn’t gold £80?

Sort of. The name itself doesn’t really mean anything. It is the direct equivalent but as to what you get for it depends on how much the bank wants to pay to the card provider.

Not all WE/VI cards are equal.

I tried putting my Monzo Max card’s details into the Mastercard benefits site and got a pretty brisk brush-off

It looks like there’s a new Lloyds bank debit / credit cards on the horizon:

I wonder if this is a teaser

I like almost all of this new look, including the brighter green they’ve started to use, but that card isn’t great. Just looks a lot less smart that what they currently have.

Oh that’s not going to be my favourite Lloyds design….

I’d love to, but they’ve blocked it somehow. Might reopen my complaint and command the price of a new iPhone because they’ve blocked it, see what they say :joy:

Just asked a direct question about whether they’re going to update the Nectar Amex:

Inconclusive at best.

When the Platinum card changed into a credit card, I asked 2-3 agents about the changes and they didn’t know about it either.
