I think they vanished last week. Do you still see them on Quidco/TCB?

Hmm....seems I'm late for the bus.

Any reason for 3% Lloyds Vantage and 3% BOS Vantage not being listed by MSE??

Whilst BoS Vantage isn't listed in the best current account article, LTSB Vantage is.

Scroll down to the "specialised alternatives...have a high balance" section.

You can have 4-5 Vantage accounts too, remember. You also don't need the £1000 monthly deposit to come from an external bank, so an internal transfer between all of your accounts is sufficient.

My £70.70 cashback from Nationwide is still "pending" on TopCashBack.

You can't have multiple FlexDirect accounts earning 5% any more. Any accounts opened before 18th March or something will get 5% but after that only the first account gets interest.

I have 3 Lloyds TSB Vantage accounts that were all opened online, one of which earns up to 4%, two of which earn up to 3%, no problems.

Don't know anything about BOS but IIRC they use the same online system as Halifax and Lloyds TSB so I guess it'd work.

I opened the 2nd and 3rd a long time after the 1st, a few days apart.
