I have an account with those fiat buttheads, but don't use it. I only opened it to skim £150 off of them through the switch bonus and buy more corn. Did the same with NatWest and Halifax. When another bonus offer becomes available I'll switch from FD.

Haha, good plan. So, who is your primary bank now? Or are they all "buttheads" 😅

Barclays, for 15 years, and more recently also Chase. No issues with them sending deposits to exchanges.

Interesting, Barclays did well at protecting themselves against the crash, too.
Maybe they are a sane dark horse in the game.
I'll give them a look.
