Everybody keep their fingers crossed for me please....Thanks!

Hey lynsayjane,
I'd watch out for the RBS account - I read on the small print that they only pay out the £100 in May 2007 AFTER you have opened a Royalties account before end of June 2006 paying £12 a month - so you are paying them to have the account - then they pay you (most) of the money back - so you pay them approx £132 and they pay you £100 back!
I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole - but let me know what your sis says. I'd say - open a non fee paying bank account with no offer, it'll work out better in the long run!
scottishspendaholic xMBNA = £4,000 / Next = £925 (approx. tbc on 19/8)
Tesco = £2,910.11 / Smile overdraft = £500
Bank of Scotland = £2,782.830 -
