changing the subject slightly to BOS vantage account. can you open 3 of these?

Yes, but you need to ring up to request them, and you can only open one per 24 hours. They will ask what you will be using it for. Some of the staff are not that happy when you say "Savings", but others are fine with that.

I remember I read somewhere that you can have more than one Vantage account. However, when I try to open a second account online, I receive a message saying that they cannot offer me another current account.

The same happened to me but you can open it up over the phone or in branch. (It takes around 20 minutes on the phone)

I may end up doing it... However I would really want to avoid a credit search on my file!

You can open

3 x Lloyds (used to be 6)
3 x BOS and
3 x TSB

You can do internal transfers of the £1K, automated via standing order round the each 3.

You can feed the monthly interest, via standing order, to a 3% monthly saver account.

It would be the same as opening on line, which you have already tried.

Also, a single credit search isn't going to affect your file much, although I admit I wouldn't want one between mortgage AIP and completion.

Thanks for this... seems like the best option for savings right now (Santander 123 account also)

Interest paid tonight at the close of business. I presume it is around the 9 or 10 o'clock period tonight
