Re: Amateur Banks
I had something similar...
I had an early Natwest cash card (early 80s?). It was a punched card affair and you got a handful that would get you a tenner each and the card was retained and posted back to you. I was only issued a couple and after a while I was getting frustrated and asked if they could up this to £50-wiorth a week. They said No, I hadn't been using the account enough (despite being in credit and there generally being MORE in the account month-on-month)
I crossed the road, went into Barclays and had a proper cash card with a limit of £100-a-day by the end of the week
