Lloyds to First Direct SO

guitarman001

Still not in the account but my lunch has flown by so will have to wait until I get home to phone Lloyds. Saying that, I did see the site was down last night. Thanks for your help, folks!

My payment has reached FD and has credited. Note this is the original payment as I did not need to make a second transfer as discussed in post #10.

Hope that helps,
Spigs

A new question!!

I just opened the regular saver account and it said it would take my £300 monthly.. but it never said from which date!! Is there anywhere that tells you when this is so that I can time my Lloyds standing order?

Since I just opened it, it's not showing up on internet banking - or perhaps it's not meant to... can you see it on your internet banking?

The transfer date for the regular saver is the same day of the month that you initially paid into the account.

Oh - so today then!
I'd best put back my Lloyds standing order 4-5 days then as it only came through today as well.

EDIT - DOES the regular saver show up through internet banking at all?


OK, so that's my share dealing stuff almost sorted...
First Direct is pretty much sorted
Halifax is almost sorted

I don't think I'm going to bother with HSBC 6% - I think I'm going to have enough on my plate remembering all this for now!

Of course it does, its in the list of your various accounts.
It may take a little time to appear.
Have you had your welcome email?
