Bank accounts that allow 4-Weekly payments?

Hello.

Can anyone tell me which bank and building society accounts allow you to set up "online standing orders" with "4-Weekly" payment frequency?

I'm particularly interested to know if this can be done with the following accounts:

Barclays Current Account
Smile Current Account
Yorkshire Bank Current Account
Halifax Bank Current Account
Metro Bank Current Account

I have checked out Norwich & Peterborough Gold Light Currect Account but unfortunately they only allow weekly, monthly and years standing orders to be set up online. Otherwise this seems a great account especially for overseas use as they don't charge fees.

Thanks,
John

    Heck, last time I looked, Barclays even offered to setup an SO that occured every "Barclays staff pay day", whatever that is. I'm going to assume that Barclays staff that hold Barclays current accounts get extra perks, and some SO the entire contents to another account on their pay day.

    I guess for most banks its easier to do a monthly one rather than 4 weekly as its more work for them!
