Max numbers of Lloyds Vantage account allowed

How many Vantage accounts can one open (regular one's paying 3% till 5K).? I used to have all my money in Santander Direct Issue xx (cant remember issue number, paying 3.2%) but thats coming to end on 19th March. So need somewhere to put my money in.

i have just applied for 2 more vantage accounts online so i'll put 10K in there. I thought of opening 123 Current account but again they need 2 DD where i only have 3 DD in total and they go through Loyds 4% vantage account.

    Use Tescos Saver or Santander E-Saver for Direct Debits, you can then just effectively move £1 Direct Debit between your accounts. I had to do this with my Vantage accounts as I only have 2 'real' direct debits.

    Max number of Classic Vantage accounts is meant to be 3. However, I setup 2 others in last month online and got all welcome packs sent to me and the interest rate says 3% (my other three were 4%, maybe its 3x 4% and 3x3%?, not sure? someone else needs to confirm). I setup the other 2 classic vantages to switch to different banks to get easy switch cashback.

    So I believe it is 3 accounts max, but i've heard of other people having more too.
