Thinking of changing to Alliance & Leicester Premier Account

Hope I might be able to get some advice on changing to the Alliance & Leicester Premier Account as it has been advised on the website that this is the best one on the market at the moment.

Has anyone changed to this account and when I was reading through the information it states something about an 11 week change over period - what does this mean?

Thanks in advance for any help

    best to go through quidco and get £50 possibly and £100 for changing (A&L website) and possible refer a friend with additional £25..maybe..
    nothing wrong with the account and online banking..
    11 weeks means their time period to switch everything over from your old account to theirs.. i had no probs..
    smile everyday...cos its free :)
    Live everyday to the Full..cos there is no tomorrow:dance:

    Hi, I moved to them and am very happy with the account. The 11 week changeover means it takes up to 11 weeks for all direct debits, standing orders pay from work etc. to be moved from your old account to your new one i.e. you need to keep both open.
