    Hadn't realized it was possible to hold two current accounts in the same name with Lloyds.

    Yes I have two current accounts with Lloyds. Never occurred to me to do STC with both accounts, presumed it wasn't allowed. Just rung to check. Would you believe the girl on Customer Services hadn't even heard of the scheme!!! Takes the biscuit. Anyway, checked with the Manager and the second account is also now registered. So, thanks everyone, should be £200 by the time I've finished.

    I buy postage stamps. 3 x 2nd class stamps and 1 x 1st class stamp is £1.01. I pass two post offices every day and purchase 8 stamps in this way, so it adding up well. I like entering competitions, but have previously been sticking to free online ones. This means for 4p a day I can enter 8 post card comps every day as well and hopefully win a nice prize courtsey of lloyds tsb. :D

    I also use it for numerous little purchases from creme eggs to the local paper. Last night Asda had huge bunches of beautiful flowers, just coming into bloom, for 50p down from £10, so I got myself some 'free' flowers too.

  • I was really excited to see this post as I am already a Lloyds TSB customer with current and savings account BUT what do you know! Not applicable to me when I tried to register for it today unless I open yet another separate savings account. The 'save the change' cannot be saved to my current or existing savings account......Bummer

  • Forgot to mention that I am pretty annoyed (as existing customer) Lloyds did not notify me about this offer I read it on this site instead.

    I work for lloydstsb and have set up STC using my existing current and savings account, have had no problem. I set it up on line. The bank is not requiring new accounts for you to do this, cant think why you are not able to do this, have you old accounts that could do with updating? Your local branch would help you and register you for the scheme. Well the one that I work at would do. Good luck

    If you have online banking you would have seen it advertised on the home page, also walk into your local bank and you will see it advertised as well. I certainly didn't get a personal notification, it's a case of keeping your eyes open for new incentives. Maybe at some point, you ticked a box which said you didn't want any "communication" from them, in which case, you wouldn't be notified of new deals either.
  • How long should it take for payments to your egg account to hit your Lloyds account. I did a couple of x.01 payments yesterday and it hasn't shown up online with Lloyds yet.

    Thanks
  • Can I just clarify ...

    What is the easiest way of Saving the Change online for someone who

    - doesn't have an Egg savings account at present
    - does have a paypal account linked to their Lloyds current account
    - has the following creditcards with a balance: Amazon/Natwest Airmiles/Halifax Mencap

    Advice would be appreciated -

    thanks
