[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 951127, member: 176256"] I changed my current account to Nationwide's FlexPlus about a year ago. For a fee of £10 a month I get world wide travel insurance for the family, European breakdown cover and interest paid at 3% gross on the current account up to a maximum of £2500. There are other benefits which I am unlikely or unable to take advantage of such as mobile phone insurance, new white goods warranty extension and some other stuff I'm not sure of. It's difficult to pick the individual cost out of that but the breakdown insurance with the RAC prior to that was over a £100 by itself prior to that (albeit covering both myself and my wife - the Nationwide one just covers me) and my travel insurance was included for European countries as part of my previous current account. We also have EHIC cards for emergency treatment cover/recovery of (some) fees. TBH I haven't checked to see if staying in our own property is excluded but I don't recollect seeing that exclusion when I was agonising over whether or not to change. I will check it out though. EDIT This is the account information. I had forgotten about the commission free cash withdrawals which is sometimes not inconsiderable and could easily cover a month's complete fee. Still checking on the insurance details. [URL='http://www.nationwide.co.uk/products/current-accounts/our-current-accounts/overview']Compare Our Best Current Accounts | Nationwide[/URL] [/QUOTE]
