Cheap direct debits

Options
I came across a thread on here with cheap direct debits but can't find it now.

I want a couple of really cheapo direct debits for a bank transfer incentive.

    Will that actually count as an active DD? It's quite likely that the charity will never collect it as the DD costs them more than the 10p donation.

    The one DD has been set up and has aleady been collected.

    The next one is not due until next week.

    Seeing as they allow them to be set up for less than £1.00 then hopefully it shouldn't be a problem.

    Perhaps the bank waives certain charges for charities.

    Speculation and hope! ;)
  • Thanks YorkshireBoy I will keep my eyes out and fingers crossed - not had a decent switch offer in over a year and I'm starting to get itchy feet!
