A&L Regular Saver & Current Acct

JEC

Went through most of the process of opening an A&L Current Acct in order to be able to open the 10% Regular Saver too. However, it was asking for details of any current account I already have. As I don't actually want to transfer current accounts, could somebody let me know what happens. If a fill in current acct details, will they automatically arrange a transfer or do they specifically ask if I wish to transfer?

Thanks.

There's no requirement to switch accounts over to them.

When you get your welcome back, there's a form to complete *if* you want to switch.

PS: I assume you are aware that you can be referred and make £50 for opening the account?

I was not aware.... tell me more

I am an existing A&L Premier A/c customer. I've just upgraded to their Premier Direct current A/c without any hassle. I am not eligible for the 10% regular saver, but if my husband opens a current a/c with them by paying in £500/month by standing order/DD from anywhere else, he will be able to transfer £250 pounds of that to their reg saver a/c and send the other £250 anywhere else.

Sounds good

Don't forget to recommend your husband. You will get 2x£50 - more than extra interest with Regular Saver ...

Thanks grumbler, I'd been wondering if we'd be eligible for that. Is there a closing date for this 10% regular saver with A&L?

There is no anything to wonder about. Just print recommend a friend voucher (pdf**), fill it in and sent to A&L (I prefer using Recorded mail to make sure that the post is not lost).

I've just saved the A&L referral form.

How do you lot know so much about everything? It's seriously impressive (and a bit scary) :eek:

Can you help me to put those "blue underlined" bits into posts and work out how to thank people properly?

With Enhanced Interface you are able just to highlight, copy and paste links and pictures from other sites (and from this site) - this is really simple.

and work out how to thank people properly?

I don't know what 'properly' means, but the simplest way is just to click button under the post you want to thank for.
