I’m so torn between Drummonds and Child and Co. Both are great looking cards in their own way.

I honestly prefer the Child & Co card but Drummonds says “Private” so that’s a one up.

As people will know, I hate granny sheen with a passion. But for some reason the Drummonds card is the exception. I think it looks nice on it with the blue background.
I like the card, and think it would be great if the daisy wheel just disappeared from it. Not just because it says Private on it!

I don’t mind the glossy effect and the gradient is good on the physical but it’s the daisy wheel that ruins it for me, it’s too big lol.
Mastercard logo placement is a bit meh but doesn’t bother me.
Oh please!
Remove the private banking from the card and its fans would make like Monzo’s chat button.

But yes, I probably wouldn’t have bothered with it, now it’s both my joint spending and joint bills accounts.
Child & Co. is my personal though.

My favourite part of you having the new coral version is that others tried and just got another embossed one.

Maybe it put them to the back of the list for unembossed cards. I am very curious as to why I got this new card but others haven’t though…

I suspect it’s because you had Plus for a while and then cancelled and got downgraded which issued a “new” coral card.
Others who tried could have been in a logic where within the cooling off period for Plus just get a “replacement” card.
That’s my theory at least.

Might reapply for a Monzo account (last had one 4-5 years ago) and see what card I get.

Good luck, they might not let you.

I will try this now as I’ve had Plus for a while and see what turns up when my new Coral Card arrives once Plus has been cancelled

I downgraded and got an embossed card.
I still have my plus card from when I downgraded.
Turns out if you just ignore the nagging every time you open the app (tap the back arrow), you can just keep using it.

Damn wish I thought of that.
This also works with the premium. I cancelled and still have my metal card

Did you cancel when they said you could keep the card if you didn’t like the travel insurance provider?
Or just downgrade through normal process?
I want to get a personalised card before I quit Barclays premier.
Anyone here has one? If so can you please tell me if the visa logo actually has a white background to it or is it transparent?
If you go through the process of ordering a personalised card it shows you what the card will look like. If you don’t like it, just don’t proceed.
Under Visa brand guidelines it has to be so yes.
