As always very interesting particularly to me (given the desire in the EU to move away from Visa and MC at the moment) because of the Orange Baby is the short bit at the end about the payment system UPI

Sounds good and I'd love to see more of it and want it here

Sadly many EU countries have bits of it already, I have a Blik app on my Polish account why isn't such a payment method available in the UK ?

-> Now's a good time to leave #HSBC and go for example to #Nationwide which seems to have much better ethics! (Also, they give you some percentage of their profits back, I got £150 this year just for being with them)

Hi UK people, would you recommend a good bank for current accounts and mortgages? One that does not support #FossilFuels? Specifically in #Scotland if that matters… 🙏

(I am currently with #Santander which works well when there is no problem at all but also stole some money from my account and are not contactable by email anymore)

My phone is Android 11 and their website says the app is for Android 7 or later.

Been using it for months, then it said it was going to stop supporting my device end of June and then no longer worked.

Uninstalling to re-install and Google Play says it doesn't support my device, but all other banking apps do. 🤷‍♂️

So, no access to web or app banking because they screwed up?
