There is talk in the financial press of the end of free banking now looming, with customers paying about tenner a month for the privilege of having a bank account.
Do you pay for your account? If so, are the advantages worth it? If not, how would you feel about it?
For us, we have a free account and from time to time they ask if we want to pay them money to use a different account, which seems to offer some limited advantages like free travel insurance to places we won't be going to, that kind of thing, so I've not bothered.
Sales of mattresses to keep your money under might boom though.
