    Main Bank is Virgin - found them quick and efficient. Separate account with Royal Bank of Scotland for paypal, nochex etc but thats only cos I've been with them since I was about 10 and I'm sentimental. Although how I can be sentimenal about a company that makes £6 billion profit and pays its staff nowt is beyond me.

The less you are, the less you express your own life, the more you have, the greater is your alienated life, the greater is the store of your estranged being." Karl Marx

    HSBC - been with them for years and never had any issues.
    Did have an account with Barclays too once, but they were... well... pants!


    I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.... It was them that started me drinking.

    Nationwide; excellent service, and I can bear out the currency conversion stuff as well. Online service is pretty easy to use, too.
