My Revolut standard is right side up, BUT my Revolut Pro card is upside down. Go figure.
Does anyone know is nationwide passbook is still available?
Also how much money do you need to put in their ISAs to get an ISA card?
I have one with the new logo (which was immediately cancelled - it was an overflow from my sonās old savings account):

The actual smile chequebooks (I may still have one lying around) have a more standard pink flash with the line-drawing smile, like their logo. I think they might have used other smiles in their marketing in the past but by the time I was a customer it was only the pink one and very occasionally the Cheshire cat.
What I almost certainly donāt have (but this thread has reminded me of) is my first Solo card from Bank of Scotland, from their youth account in the late 90s. It was black and had a shiny x in a circle on the front, and I think nothing else - the rest was all on the back. So far Iāve not been able to find any pictures online, but I feel like it would have stood the test of time.
Iāve been on a delve in the Internet archive and found some very old web pages about it - itās got the x logo but alas no pictures of the card.

My RBS Premier Visa Debit on Apple Pay appears to have acquired a shine effect. Iām sure itās not my imaginationā¦ when I move the phone around itās as though thereās a fixed light shining on the cardā¦. I havenāt spotted this on any of my cards before and Iām sure this hasnāt always been thereā¦. Took a video but i canāt upload it so screenshots and imagination will have to sufficeā¦

Heh, my purple RBS credit card does the same, as does my HSBC Rewards card, but canāt see it on others.
I imagine thatās an iOS feature rather than something theyāre able to package with the card asset, but wonder why itās only on some and not others.
How strange, doesnāt seem to happen with my HSBC rewards card. Iāll try and re-add it.
Ah yes, youāre right.
Doesnāt appear on my HSBC rewards card and thatās has connected balance. Doesnāt appear on my RBS credit card either. Mysterious.
@jo is correct itās absolutely the open banking connection that causes this effect.
It is more difficult to see on some cards.

Hereās the actual thing. Itās rather nice, apart from the unaligned words:
Would look lovely with a silver Mastercard logo.

Some wonderful Chinese cards available I have posted some of mine on this thread.
On a side note I lived in China for 3 years and travel back for a month every year. Working in China is very diff than travel or exploring. 996 is very real work culture and unless you have a unique specialism job opportunities are not what they used to be.
Just thought I would share that.

Very nice. Really think Santander has some lovely cards out at the moment. Both the black and red ones are simple but work so well

Does anyone else create their own app logo to show on the Home Screen?
Iāve designed them for Amex, Virgin Money, and RBS. Regarding the latter, I noticed they updated the app for Premier, and it now has this awkward white edge on the right-hand side. I couldnāt stand the sight of it, so I had to create a new one.
Share your app design replacements.
