All the Amex cards have that “member since” with nothing under it on Apple Pay. Wish they’d remove it. They can’t show your year there in Apple Pay so it’s redundant

Thanks for confirming.

Yes - they need to remove it, if they aren’t going to use it.

Just needs a couple of FD cards to make it Batman’s wallet

Hoping it might be waiting when I get home tonight!

Not happy with the non-matching Apple Pay images though:

Enough to make me like embossed cards again.

You know what, if they changed the font out to smaller for credit (I know why it’s the size it is) that card might actually be one of the nicest I’ve seen in a long time!

The gold magstripe is lovely too. I think @DMc1 posted a pic up there somewhere.

Everyone is leaving RBS now after the great movement of 2024

Admittedly I do like the FD cards a lot, and the app looks good (for me).

Given my issues with HSBC I’d be highly unlikely to get a FD account so I’ve never tried.

People are easily led, it only takes a few people to praise something and many more will follow due to FOMO. We are a very easily led species, sadly.

Give it time and Co-op bank might even become a trend on here.

I don’t understand it either, but then again I struggle to understand many human behaviours.

Anyway, I’m off to apply to FD…

No, but don’t let that stop you :slight_smile:

My Zing card arrived. I quite like the sleeve it comes in and the card is nice, lacking a bit of colour on it though! I expected a bright green accent somewhere.

The vertical logo really doesn’t do it for me. Nor does the outline all-caps CREDIT. At least it’s Helvetica, unlike the ‘debit’ text on the other card.

The only reason I’d consider opening an fd account is to see if they still have records of me being a customer 18 years ago and use it as a reason to not pay the bribe.

It’s not Christmas yet, despite the Royal Mail app wishing me a Merry one already.

Got our first Christmas card through the post this time last week.

Need to have serious words with the sender.

I’d return to sender. That’s just unacceptable, it’s only early November. I just don’t get it.

I am the OG Christmas.

Then @N26throwaway tried to make me be boring regular Revels when it wasn’t Christmas anymore, so I kept it in protest. Then summer. Now Christmas again.

When will I be valentines Revels next? Who knows!

I can’t afford many more of those!
