The curious visitor of PayPal website will think that PayPal is quite like any other payment proccessing webslite like e-gold or moneybookers. Only when you join PayPal you get the full picture of it - especially if you are a businessperson.

I've had the best experience with their customer service and helpline than with any other bank, it is absolutely superb, they are extremely quick to answer e-mails, they post replacement cards/cheque books recorded delivery next day but the best aspect is the helpline, you can ring your branch directly meaning that there is no need for automated call centres which are terribly frustrating.
Their website and online banking is also particularly helpful.
Natwest may not be the cheapest bank when it comes to charges but I think that the customer service makes up for that...
