When mine was opened by the bank manager (small branch!) he said I could only have one! :mad:

Tell him to check on the LTSB Intranet - I was told 'only 1 per customer' until I insisted on a check.

I think it is a maximum of 3 or at least it was.

Further down this thread it mentioned a change - but was that a change from an infinite number to maximum 3 though?

Believe so -I have 7, but that got restricted to 3 at some point.

It changed from an unlimited number to a maximum of three on 23 July 09 when online applications were stopped (unless you already had access to online banking where it was still posiible to open numerous basic accounts and then upgrade them).
Fortunately I also got seven up and running before the clampdown.

Sorry. We can't process your account application online.

However, we may be able to process your application in a Lloyds TSB branch but we need to talk to you further about your application.
Simply call into any Lloyds TSB branch with;

• An original document confirming your identity e.g. passport or driving licence.
• An original document confirming your address e.g. utility bill or bank statement.

I get the same message, even when it pro-actively suggests I should open another account!!

I have one at the moment.

I remember that I used to get this message. I just tried again now....it worked. But they said they would contact me if my application was succeeded. And I got 4 with them at the moment. If it worked, I would open 2 more!
