    Hi

    I'be just spoken to LloydsTSB and have been advised that they have introduced a maximum of 3 accounts that can have vantage. I already have one in my one name and 2 joint accounts and they refused to add vantage to another account I opened on the internet. 2 of the accounts are actively used and are our main accounts, one we have recently opened for savings and that was the plan with the fourth one. Apparently it was introduced 20 July and is being implemented over the phone and in branch......:(:(

    No - that's why we didn't go for the default upgrade.
  • After reading the above thread, my mum went into her Lloyds branch last week to open a second Vantage account only to be told by 2 members of staff that this was not possible! She pointed out to them that the Lloyds website said she could and the response she got was 'oh no' and 'wouldn't it be lovely if you could...'

    Anyway we've done it online now and so far it seems to be up and running.
