Does anyone know how many DD's (or Funding Mandates as they call them) are allowed into one esaver account, please? I currently have 3 going in from Halifax (for the rewards), but I need to set up another from my new Lloyds Club account.
Innovate: You're a star! I've found your link for Santander's DD form. How on earth did you find this? I searched on their website and couldn't find it. I'm now hoping they allow more than 3 in to one esaver.0 -

I used the link given by Adindas in post 272 and printed off my DD form. At the same time I had also rung Santander and the girl put one in the post to me which arrived today, which is identical, so I know therefore that the link above is therefore the current correct one. The address to send it to is in white writing on the black background at the top - in Bradford.
Don't know how many you are allowed.0 -

You can select which box you want. In my case I wanted payment into the E-Saver0

If you call Santander they'll tell you can't open any new DD's through them and that you'll have to arrange new DD's through the payer ( e.g. LLoyds). Anyway, I've sent one of their DD forms by post , so will see what happens to that.0 -
I think it is a max of 3 per Esaver account.0

I'm still waiting for a couple of their "funding mandates" (direct debits to everyone else) to be posted out to me, but I'm not holding my breath (every time you ring up and ask about these elusive things no one there seems to know anything about them). I was going to use the dd form for which there's a link in this thread, but the only options to select on that are esaver, cash ISA and flexible saver. As each of these has a specific number against it, I don't know how successful I'd be in crossing them all out and just writing in everyday saver without their relevant ref no. I could always just open an esaver with Santander, but I don't really want to open another account just for this, reluctantly, it looks like it might be my only option.0 -

Nothing as of yet so have transferred a British Gas Homecare DD with a Vantage account to the new Club account just in case the Santander doesn't happen. Didn't really want to do that, but don't have a lot of faith in Santander to start with.0 -
For this flippin' DD. I was sure my Santander account was an esaver but when I logged on to my accounts the other day it states Everyday Saver. I checked what I'd opened it as back in 2012 and it was an esaver issue 5(when the interest rate was 3.20% AER), so when the hell did it get changed over to an Everyday Saver? Did it do this automatically when the bonus dropped off the esaver issue 5 back in June 2013? I only kept the account open as I use it for the Halifax DD's to get the rewards. But none of Santander's DD's seem to mention the Everyday Saver, my DD's were set up on the account when it was an esaver. I don't understand what's happened with it.0
