hi
i moved from barclays after free banking, they charge for everything , paying money/ cheques in , taking money out, even charge for every slip you fill in. did not realise this until i got an advanced notice of charges then i queried it . then i moved.

[jodan63]

most banks offer you free banking for a limited period , then charge you for farting lol

[wightsurf]

Abbey free for life ,i think cheque limted at couple hundred.

[Phil Mitchell]

Leave Barclays when your free banking finishes as their charges are a complete rip off. Also their ethics are shameful. I moved over to Abbey last year and its saved me over 100s if not more!

[mr merson]

Interesting comments !  Personally I do look for good service , and if it costs a bit more I think its worth it 

[P®oPole™]

mr merson,

Do you have any idea how much your going to be paying when your free period ends! Just because you get a business bank manager and a fancy folder doesn't make it 'cool' you will get that everywere, you seem very naive to me. I would like to see your face when you get your first bill for commision.

Make sure you dont sign the simply business contract, they will have you then.

Abbey isn't the greatest of business banking services but I've always stayed within their limits and never paid them a penny so I'm not complaining.  Mind you, I only have 13 free cheques left to bank this month so I may have to hold a few back until August.  I'm away for a week in August so not much chance of exceeding the 100 limit that month.
