    First Direct is still my main UK bank. Pity it's now owned by HSBC!

    It's been owned by HSBC for over a quarter of a century.

    For the record - I hate the term "crypto" (my mind associates that with bitcoin etc). Digital tokens - i.e. a packet of random numbers, somehow seems more secure in my mind.

    I unsubscribed from their marketing drivel several days ago and am still being spammed.

    So the plan is deposit $100,000 for 3 months, collect your 4.5% interest and then transfer back to your regular account?

    What's the risk? Isn't this covered under the deposit protection scheme?
