Nice email from NatWest today encouraging consumers to switch to paper-free banking:
No real commentary on this ...
... except that isn't it a bit weird that the benefit is that you're protected against identity theft by having no paper around ...
... and yet you need the paper statements to prove your identity.
Oh yea, and just in case you're not sure about doing this, the bank is offering a prize to one lucky winner to pay their mortgage for a year ... I was going to offer them my structured finance mortgage but they limited the offer to £20,000. Shucks!
