Co-Op bank - £200 if you switch to them
Comments
-
I see my standing orders have been placed onto the co-op, but they are still present on my switching bank. I assume they have not been told to 'delete' them yet.
The problem is that one of the SOs is due for payment tomorrow. I wonder who is going to be paying it, my switched bank or co-op, or both(!)0 -

Given it's an SO, can't you delete it yourself from one of the accounts, or change the date forward, till you see who pays it and then delete it?
Other than that, it's an interesting point about duplicates. If you can't do either then I'd get onto tele banking, or cover the cash in both accounts..0 -

In effect there should be nothing whatsoever remaining on the other (transferred from) account.
My DD's are showing on my original bank and they also appeared on Co-Op today.0 -

My standing orders are showing in both "old" account and the new co-op account as well. I've been given a completion of switching date of the 11 Nov, and have decided to leave it until that date before I cancel them on my old account (they're only a couple of small "dummy" standing orders I set up to use for "switching" offers like this) as I don't want to do anything that might jeopardise my £200 cashback.0 -
Apply online two weeks ago.
Ask to visit one branch did it last week.
Got official a/c opening letter yesterday with switching form.
Fill in and sent it yesterday.
Hope to get another GBP200 in about 3-4 months timeMy standing orders are showing in both "old" account and the new co-op account as well.

No worries it is quite common nowadays. It literally mean they did switching DDs to new a/c . The old one in old a/c will disappear once they manage to tkae DDs from new a/c once.
They did it nowadays, If there was not enough cash in the new a/c they will take it from old a/c to avoid late payment penalty.My DD's are showing on my original bank and they also appeared on Co-Op today.0 -

Standing orders in coop but now not in LLOYDS . Internet banking up and transfered £20 to it to test. Had letter to say I'm up and running. Will transfer £800 in next and then bring the vantage account back to life as I asked for it not to be closed and £5K is still in it. I'll manually move £1000 in and out of vantage rather than set up a new s.o to be safe.If the ball had gone in the net it would have been a goal.If my Auntie had been a man she'd have been my Uncle.0

does everyone get a £1,000 temporary overdraft during the switching process though? I can't remember if they said it was interest free. I'm going to leave money in both accounts just to be sure.52% tight0
