Thanks for the replies :beer:

A little more info, this account is to basically pay for my hobby all year and I have built up a lump sum that I have at the moment. So the idea was to pay it into this account and then take money out of it over the year - so at least to start with there will be a fair amount in it

I'm hoping I don't ever need £250 a day or I'm in real trouble! Maybe £100 every month

Sounds like it's a decent plan to me. It just seemed that I would get a little more interest than opening a 2nd current account and the money is still easy for me to get at.

Thanks,

Sounds a reasonable idea then

The cash transactor account is identical in its features to the Internet Saver

I dont think so, in particular you cannot do DDs or SOs from the IS, like you can from the CT.

I use my YBS Internet saver to complement my current account.

Each month, 2 days before pay day, I transfer the cash I expect to spend over the next month from my current account to YBS using my debit card.

Cash that is earmarked for bills gets transferred from my current a/c to a savings account with the same bank, and transferred back only on the day it is needed.
