    Me too.

    Logged in but the Bond has disappeared and nothing yet in my current account.

    I phoned them a few minutes ago. I was told that the money would be in my current account by the close of business tomorrow.

    They stated that they were not a bank.

    I haven't had my capital back yet, but the interest was paid yesterday to a different bank account. I was not expecting them to do that.

    Is anyone shifting this from Newcastle to First Direct? Or is there something better?

    2% at the moment but it's dropping to 1.5% in October. However, it's variable so possibe to shift it again in October if there's owt better out then at that point.

    I think you have to have a current account with them to get a fixed rate account so this puts me off.
    I have enough current accounts to be going on with.

    Kent & Reliance have a 1 yr fix at 2.01%
    and a 2 year at 2.3%

    Yes, you're right you do have to have a current account with them. If you were going to do that then it would be better to transfer an old unused current account to them and earn yourself £100 (or £125 if the link on MSE is still valid) for doing so!

    I`m hoping to see my money in my nominated account by "close of business" today.
    Whatever time that is!

    Money is showing in my current account!

    Anyone know what is the daily faster payment limit for Lloyds?
