MHK believes lack of options could stop people moving to the Island
The availability of credit cards on the Isle of Man is reaching 'crisis point' and it could put some off moving to the Island.
That's the belief of Douglas North MHK David Ashford, who'll be one of a number of Tynwald members raising the topic when the Manx parliament meets this week.
Barclaycard recently sent a letter in error to its Manx customers, stating their accounts would close if they can't provide a UK address.
While the provider has since clarified that's not the case, Mr Ashford says the concern it's caused could impact government's plans to grow the population:
Here's what these Douglas residents had to say about the situation:
'Pressure in the system' but bed figures are wrong says Manx Care
Work permits 'form part of longer-term plan' says Johnston
First Deemster and Clerk of Rolls appointed to senior roles
Mother's Day recognition for women who ‘shape our community’
