Current accounts - no card reader?

[One More Solo]

Which banks currently don't require a card reader for online banking? I'm looking to move from Nationwide and that's one of the reasons. Feels like archaic technology and can be very inconvenient. I know Santander don't use them but which other banks are the same?

Lloyds, Santander and Barclays don't require a card reader to access the online banking. My last Nationwide didn't require a card reader to access my online banking either so im suprised you do, have you tried registering?

You need the card reader to do transfers to new recipients, but not to log in to your account. It's a PITA so I just transfer money from N'wide to Santander and pay from there. I'm looking to switch but don't want to end up in the same position.

Thanks all, I've switched to Lloyds for the £150 and lack of card reader!
