Side note, years ago when I was treasurer of the Christian Union at my uni I received a very generous donation from a student in the form of a Coutts cheque. I was suitably impressed by the bank’s name though at the time I had insufficient life experience to join the dots and realise just how utterly minted this bloke must have been.  . From that day to this, that’s my one single brush with the world of Coutts. |
My God-son’s parents (and they are also God-parents to our offspring) have a Coutts bank account - tbf, we have known them since they were in Uni, and their parents were both firmly middle class (teachers and Post Office managers); their first house was an ex-council semi.
He was offered the Coutts account when he became a Tax Partner at one of the Big Four accountancy firms in his mid-30s - it came with the position.
