TSB contactless payments
I normally use a credit card for pretty much everything. However, I recently started using my TSB debit card in order to get the 5% cash back. I normally keep £2000 in the account as it doesn't pay interest on anything above that amount. Therefore when I have made purchases on the card I try to top up the account on the…
Club LLoyds
Had a Club LLoyds current account for a long time now, always keep £5k minimum in and pay in £2.5k per month. How do i get the free magazine subscription which i have noticed that is on offer. I see no way to activate it for current customers?.
Free personal finance/budgeting software
I hope this is the right section (rather than techie). I'm looking for recommendations for the best (free preferably) personal finance/budgeting software just now. I'd rather a software I can install on my PC, than an online thing, though I can do online if it's good. Easy to use is a bonus. And not linking into my bank…

I have only been with this particular company for one month and I've just received my first payment which came through PayPal. However, I can set up a wire transfer if I wish.

I remember Clydesdale was 70 days as it stood out as…

bank switching-how quickly does a DD become effective ?
I am looking to start a merry go round of bank switching but I worry as to how long should I leave between setting 2 new direct debits up and then applying for my first switch account. I went on to a couple of sites that I could set DD's up but the first payment would only come out 28th November. If I applied for a new…
halifax to BoS mnothly payments

New interest allowance question
I've just been paid my interest for the year with my nationwide regular savers (currently at 1.6% net) So with this new interest allowance from April, assuming I pay in the max per month from now: Will my next interest payment next November be calculated based on 2% for the entire year? Or will it be 1.6% for all the…
