another good deal Sarah
an existing Nationwide current account doesn't seem to present a barrier.
i could do with another donor account

I usually open Lloyds Classic accounts when I need throwaways in a hurry. They're ready to use immediately and the debit card typically arrives within a week; although adding direct debits obviously takes longer. The online application is really quick & easy for existing customers.

good tip Sarah. i've just opened one, and funded from my Club Lloyds account.
now to work out what DDs to set up... i assume i need 2, and will check out further tomorrow.

[Sarah]

I've now opened a new FlexDirect account and requested to switch a previous TSB account. Probably won't qualify for the £200 incentive but there's always a possibility they'll pay it regardless and I wanted to get the direct debits moved away from TSB anyway.

interesting Sarah.. should we ask why that is?

[planteria]

i'm trying to make a little plan
perhaps get my new Lloyds Classic account set up with two DDs and then transfer that to Nationwide for this offer
and transfer my TSB account to Lloyds.. £75 to payout 31.10.23 and then transfer between 01.11.23 and 14.11.23

[Sarah]

Sorry, which bit of my post were you asking me to clarify?
