HSBC Premier. Free. Good rates (11.9% I think on my credit card, not that I use it), Excellent service and free insurance etc.

It will be on personal income. Just say 75k if they want proof show them your accounts or make a couple of divvy payments into your bank account. That's all the proof they need

Offered one a few years ago. Of course I was flattered at the propsect of being one of the new super-rich so signed up immediately.
So I forked out £250 for the privilege of having expensive travel insurance, car insurance, home insurance which I never used.
And something called "Personal Assistant Service". Which I never used.
The only time I tried to use it in public, at my local Budgens, it was rejected by the "Computer says No" checkout lady. I suddenly realised that trying the "But it's a Black Card - Where's your Supervisor?" line in a load posh voice would have been wasted on her and met with mutterings of "W****r" behind me probably followed by a beating in the car park. So meekly I shuffled off.
Overrated. Stick to a Tesco credit card with a decent APR.

The second part is that the Natwest card costs £250 per year. So the benefits you are getting are paid for by you anyway. If you want a priority pass for airlines & travel insurance you can get that for less than £250. So I'm comparing that the Amex card will get you decent airmiles and a free matching flight for £150.
I don't think it's a good card.
Bing!

I'm not entirely sure how this is relevant...but I'm happy for you being so pleased with your deal

Originally posted by Mr.Whippy View PostDoes anyone have one of these?
I'm looking at getting on as some of the benefits will be useful to me, however one of the requirements are to have a "sole income of £75,000 or above"... I turnover more than that each year (exc. VAT) but never really go into the higher rate threshold. Do they take the money retained in Ltd Co each year into account or will they turn me down?
