Best way to get 10,000 euros from GBP
First of all - I couldn't find any suitably named subforum for currency exchange. This forum seems more suitable than most (my logic is "because I want to pay for euros with money from my BANK ACCOUNT" :neutral: ) I am going abroad for a cosmetic procedure, and I need to bring 9,750 euros in cash with me. I need to buy…

When it comes to managing my personal budget after money has been transferred to cover bills savings etc I find that different payment methods show up more quickly than others.

Switching back from Lite to 1I2I3
Santander has been my main go-to current account for many years. All my SOs, the bulk of my DDs go through it and anything involving quick payments/deposits has worked like a dream. With Marcus offering 1.05% and later Skipton 1.2%, I somewhat reluctantly opted for the Lite version. When Lloyds dropped their rate I moved…

Trying again to be money fit
Hi all For a few years now, I saved in to my TSB Classic Account. At the beginning of 202 I realised that I was only earning 1.5% interest on the first £1500 on my £2500 savings. I created a eisa with Virgin (mortgage with them) and a regular saver (2.00% annual gross) with BoS. I have slowly been moving cash in to them at…

Lloyds - create SO without phone call verification?
I want to set up 2 SO's on my Lloyds account (so I can switch it to HSBC). I'm currently abroad (non-EU) and while I can receive SMS to my mobile free, calls are pretty costly. When I try to use OLB to set up SO's, it wants to call me to input a code; this is a new one for me, SMS verification is the norm I thought. But…
