Swole is a horrible word. As is the toxic masculinity it’s attached to.

For right–handed folk, using a horizontal wallet, the name of the bank is completely in the wrong place (and it’s not visible in vertical wallets either).
What a weird choice.

Yes, this is one of the things I like about HSBCs cards, In vertical wallets the logo is typically visible as is the bank name.

I guess with Lloyds there aren’t too many dark green cards to get confused with?

My first debit card, issued when I was 16, in the pre–Solo days. I really loved that design, and the giroscope pattern was replicated across the statements and chequebooks. I felt very grown–up moving to London for the beginnings of my career that summer.

I remember paying for a chocolate bar with it and thinking I was pretty cool.
And then waiting for the post with the bank statement, cos the Nokia 5110 didn’t do banking apps!
I miss the simplicity of those times

Does anyone have the NatWest rewards black credit card?
Had to download Mastercard rewards app to check my welcome bonus! Oh how good does that red lion card look!

That app is so bad. It’s one that’s written in javascript and compiled to a native app, the scrolling on the list of reward partners is very buggy and difficult to properly scroll through.

Had my Lloyds Cashback Credit card replacement arrive. The old pale grey has become Matt green with glossy logo. Plain white core though which is a shame.

Apparently RBS reps on Twitter are suggesting that they’ll have a new card design to match the rebrand… I don’t even have a beach hut yet!
Though in all honesty it’ll probably just be the purple app icon instead of the blue corner

Could brand harmonisation potentially ring the death knell for the Child & Co and Drummonds sub-brands?
