where did you click save the change ? cheers

and is it coming up as the price you paid or the rounded up price?

When I click on Transfers and Payments on the left hand menu,there is a list of accounts I make transfers to ie credit card etc.

The title Save the Change is there but no acc number. However, when I click on the title Save the Change it brings up the account details for me to trans money to. I have checked the account and nothing has been credited or debited from my c/a to match the transactions!

I am going to go into the bank today to check it out.

OK, been to the bank and was told the money only gets transferred over at the end of each month.

Is that right?

I am sure other people have had funds already trans over.

Could someone please confirm if they have had theirs put into their savings account yet?

Ta!

I can see the funds on the internet banking being shown as Save the change 45p.
How come all my purchases seem to come to ?.92p currently!!! I am going to have to start calculating better prior to the checkout!!

26 quid up by my calculations:-

had grief with my card ( not suprising) , previously only using visa debit card for cash withdrawls, they stopped me using the card for purchases, after 11 minute call to bombay ( sorry , AKA: customer support) and getting nowhere, had a call from uk support to say you have to go to lloyds tsb machine to remove card block in pin services section, as I had not done this for my shopping PIN,
same as cash withdrawl ( first I have heard of this)
happy shafting!!
hope this helps some one!!

Back to my computer today so I can check........

Well, I think it is working ok for me. I added up all the 'rounded up' pennies for my transactions for the 5.2.07and they were right that they totalled £13.75. On 6.2.07 the £13.75 was transferred out of my current account and added to my savings account.

I assume LloydsTSB will match this and any other 'round ups' at the end of this month. Intend to get the full quota if poss.

Well I know why mine isn't working.

It doesn't work if you are overdrawn!



I thought as long as you were within your overdraft limit and the debit didn't take you over then it would work but it doesn't.

Will have to bring my account back into credit and start again to benefit.

I've had my first two transactions rounded up and moved the day after the debit card transactions, but the 9 transactions I made on the 6th still haven't been rounded up and moved. I've been overdrawn for, erm, quite a while. Certainly since before the save the change promo started.

I think it's safe to say that I'll be rather :mad: if I go to the bank tomorrow and they tell me that the save the change doesn't apply if I'm overdrawn. That's not the T&C I signed up to.

Thanks very much for posting this. I used my card for the first time in ages at ASDA only to find I'd used the wrong / forgotten the PIN (or so I thought). I've waited days for the new PIN only to find that didn't work either. Was not happy and must've spent over half an hour calling Bangalore or who knows where. Incidentally I got nowhere except to be told my PIN was fine (despite the machine saying my card was now blocked).

Following your advice I went to a Lloyds ATM, un(b)locked the PIN !!?? and changed it to something else. Works fine now.

Not all bad tho - have been putting through £1.01 payments to my egg card

Flashmat - I think it is the T&C you signed up to - unless they changed the T&C in the last couple of weeks.
