I have 7 Lloyds vantage, 2 Halifax Reward and opened recently a BOS Vantage.
The online system is stopping me opening any more BOS accounts. Is there a qualification period or do they count across the 3 banks ?

Perhaps they think the amount of accounts you have opened recently is enough.
Also they maybe waiting to see how you use your recently opened BOS vantage account before they think about letting you open anymore accounts.Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:0 -
Me too. It doesn't necessarily mean you can't get one by phone. They might ask you what you want it for.The online system is stopping me opening any more BOS accounts.
Though in my case I think they may have persuaded me to get a 123 instead."It will take, five, 10, 15 years to get back to where we need to be.

When I got my 3 BoS Vantage accounts earlier this year I applied by phone, allowing 2 clear days between each application.
As to why you want them?...one for a main account, one for the secondary income stream you have, and the other to manage your spending money.
Be warned though...the phone applications are long and tedious!0 -
I had to do my no. 2 and no.3 applications on the phone, too.YorkshireBoy wrote: »Be warned though...the phone applications are long and tedious!
Yeah but for £150 a year (before tax) I can do 20 minutes of tedious.0
