I will dig out Innovate's thread and have another look as I thought I was sorted.

Another option is a dormant, or little used, credit card (something I did before I set up the two Tesco savings account DDs).

If you do use it, just remember to put some funds in the Reward account in time for the DD pull.

Thanks. I have a seldom used Post Office credit card. I tried to set up a DD to that when the LTSB thing broke, but they said they had to send out a paper mandate and that I had to send it back before it could be set up. The mandate took 10 days to get here so I binned that as it wouldn't have been set up by 31 October.

I think I tore up the mandate in disgust so will have to ask for another one.

Has everyone received their interesqt for the month gone? Nothing recieved.

I received my interest, but I noticed we have received only 3% on two of our accounts.

I think whats happened is because my £1k transfer reached the account on 1st feb, they've not given me interest :mad: apparently has to be transferred in calendar month

But surely getting no interest at all isn't fair. I'm going to raise the issue with CS tomorrow.

If you don't fulfill the pre-reqs, you can't expect to get interest. Nothing unfair about that, quite the contrary.

As I am a numbers numpty I can't tell

I got £15.51 on my Lloyds Vantage 4% (£6,000.00) accounts - is that correct, please?
I got £9.73 on my BOS Vantage 3% (£5,000.00) accounts - is that corrrect too?

Yes, they are both correct.

Yep, they're correct figures. You can expect to receive similar figures each month, but they won't be identical due interest calculation periods varying month by month.

Many thanks and much appreciated.

Thanks too - I do understand that each month will vary, my problem is I am a mathematical muppet and don't know how to work out the interest so the post saying that only 3% appeared to have been paid piqued my interest. That and the fact that my Lloyds Advantage Saver gained more interest this month than last with less money in overall.
