Hi
I have a few grand sitting in HSBC's bonus online saver (Currently at around 3.25%?)
Was looking at Halifax's Regular Saver (7.00% Fixed)
Ive only ever been with HSBC, Can i open this account online without a current account with Halifax and have my nominated account as my account in HSBC?
When/If i close the Halifax one all the funds are transfered to a nominated account
Cheers

Hope the answers help! It's also an easy account to get out of if you don't last the year, although the rate paid drop to 3.56%.Hi

YES

NO - your nominated savings account needs to be a Halifax one - you can leave a nominal balance in it eg £1. That said your standing order payment can come from HSBC.

The capital and interest goes in to the nominated account on maturity and a new Regular Saver account automatically commences unless you stop your standing order. You should make a point of review the suitability of your nominated account at this stage!0 -
