    Thinking of renting a bank safe deposit box - looks like the main UK banks have pulled out of this market and only Metro Bank now offers this service.

    Anyone know of any leading UK banks that still offer a safe deposit box?

    The Metro Bank service is not insured but no idea if that's standard.

    Only need to a small box to store jewellery. Any good or bad experiences, I'd like to hear.


    thanks

      Cheaper, but not safer... only worth installing if you intend to keep it empty...

        Also got one of the best alarm systems with automatic attendance and police notification.

          The police will attend and give you crime reference to make claim on your insurance, baseball bats better though it lacks some plausible deniability...

            Make your kids play baseball this summer and join them once or twice.

            Then take the bat away from them and hide it as they swing it at visitors.

              If you have kids then you won't have much to store in the safe...

                    Is this a Brexit backup thread I've not been informed about?
