Insurance cover for MP3, cameras, laptops, camcorders, SatNav and portable DVD players and games consoles etc. worth up to £179.98.

David Fawell, Head of Unsecured Lending at The Co-operative Bank, comments: “There is no reason why packaged accounts should be one-size-fits-all for customers. Our new offering allows consumers to tailor benefits to their lifestyle.
“Having the flexibility to choose an additional bolt-on benefits package relevant to their lifestyle will ensure customers can make the most of this innovative pick ‘n’ mix approach.”
The Co-operative Bank remains the only high street bank with a clear Ethical Policy that gives customers a say in how their money is used. It remains committed to its UK based call centres and offers 24 hour banking via online and telephone banking.
Anyone interested in opening a Credit Card Plus account should visit a Co-operative Bank branch or call 0800 247 365
