I have 2 current accounts with Yorkshire Bank and each has an overdraft facility.

Thank you very much

But can you hold 2 overdraft account from 1 bank or is it a mistake?

As of today I have a 10k offer on the HICA and a £200 offer on the Reward Account.

I opted for no overdraft.

Have I got this right,

The Halifax Reward Bank Account pays you £5 every month if £1000 is credited to the account once a month!!! I dont have to switch any accounts over, all I need to do is setup a standing order from another account to this one and out again every month?? And theres no monthly fee.

Is the £5 reward for a limited period of time or is it just till the account gets closed down??

And whats the maximum Reward Account that one person has?

TIA

Yup, that's right. Maximum number you can hold is 3.

As I understand it, yes.

Probably until Haifax adds up all these fivers!

Three, until YorkshireBoy breaks the record! :T

Has anyone applied for 3 all in one go, or is the success rate better if applied one after the other??

Dont suppose quidco, rpoints or another similiar sites are offering cashback when apply for the account :0)

Tricky unless you got 3 computers simultaneously on the go. I applied for mine in very rapid succession though.

[edit] I'll call them the triplets.

In order to qualify for the monthly £5 reward do I need to pay in £1,000 in a lump sum or is it fine to spread over the month, say pay in £500 one day and another £500 the other day within the same month?
