A CHALLENGE TO TRADITIONAL BANKING
Traditional methods of banking are under 0 from a "new type of account" which is actually meant to be almost perpetually in debit. This account, to be 21 in a few months’ time, is intended to 22 a range of personal banking services; such as current accounts, mortgages, personal loans and credit cards. Customers, who must 23 that they are at least five years from retirement, will be required to 24 a mortgage of at least 10,000 on their homes and have their salaries paid directly into the account. They will then have an agreed credit 25 of up to three times their annual salary, to use as they wish, as well as the usual 26 such as debit, credit and cash cards and a cheque book. Accounts in debit will be charged interest at a rate of 8.2 percent. This 27 favourably with the standard mortgage rate of 8. 45 percent, personal loan rates of around 13 percent and credit card 28 of about 22 percent. When the debt is cleared—as it must be by the time the customer retires—and the account goes into credit, it will attract interest at about 5 percent. Some experts say that it will revolutionise personal banking in the UK. But the 29 has been dismissed as a gimmick by rival banks and criticized by consumer groups, which are voicing fears that many customers on average incomes could be 30 into serious debt.
