A&L Account question

Hi there,

I was thinking about opening the permier direct account to take advantage of the free £50 but I'm moving abroad in January and thought this might affect the account (as I will be stopping working from Jan I won't put in the £500 per month).

Are there are clauses in the T&Cs that expand on this kind of situation and what happens if you stop putting money in your account?

Also what ID do A&L require for this account?

Thanks for your help
(sorry if this question has been answered elsewhere - will continue looking for the info).

    They charge you a £5 per month under-funding fee if you don't pay in the requisite £500 per month.

    I didn't have to supply any when I opened my account. I suppose it depends on whether they're happy with the information that the credit search returns (electoral roll etc).
  • If you need someone to recommend you or anyone reading this to get your £50, Click on my name and send me a private message
  • Do you have to keep the account open for a certain amount of time (i.e will they take back the £50 incentive if I close the acc. after 3 months?)

    Cheers again.

    No, and no.
