You're welcome lysasparkles - hoping to get myself a Lloyd's account one day (once my default comes off the old credit record )

Count me in

can i join please, i am going to round down to 5 pound increments from 2 accounts, mine is going into my ISA and DH's is going to paying a wee bit extra to his credit card bill, transferred 2.40 from mine yesterday and £2.59 from DH's

Hmm :cool: .

There should only be 51p being transferred today and that's a bit disappointing so I've decided to amend my rules and transfer the odds to the next £5. It's cheating a bit but the new system should give an average transfer of £7.50 and give me about £360 by the beginning of December :j .

So, £5.51 transferred today making £28.06 .

Sam,

Well done Sam .. to be honest I don't see it as cheating and dont think anyone here will too .. the whole point is to save and if you can afford to transfer over an extra bit then why not ?.. I know if I get any extra then I will pop it over into my VSP xx

£9.20 for me this weekend , thats 2 £9 odd in two weeks :j this is such a good idea. I am thinking of doing it on OH account too, he wouldnt miss it and it would be a nice amount for him by xmas. He never looks at his account he leaves it to me so he wouldnt know about it. what do you all think?
