You might get away with doing it in 2 payments? One for 299 and another for 251 - that might go under their radar :P

I didn't know about the shockingly low limit and tried to transfer a couple of grand once - it took around 2 weeks to come through!

It will go by BACS anyway, Santander don't do FPS other than up to £300 by phone (except for ex-A&L customers, who can apparently do it online). Though Santander's SOs go by FPS.

Cheers all, dont think will risk it, shall just draw it out and put in other account.
