When I went into the branch to change mine to gross interest the lady told me I could have 2 more joint ones and even went ahead and booked me an appointment to open them with DH - it is in a couple of weeks (earliest one we could both make) so it will be interesting what will happen then as the appointment is with her and she made a note it was to open 2 joint ones.

How many accounts do you have already?

so, (I think I am finally. although slowly).. you have
account A with £2000 in it you never go below £2000
account B with £2000 in it......you never go below £2000
then from account C you set up SO for £500 to go into account A and then from there is goes into account B...

if its done on same day it doesn't impact on interest plus it means balances do not go below £2000.

Can view the page, but can't change any settings. "Not applicable" is in place of where I'm assuming the option would ordinarily be

Just need to be patient and wait for activation code to go paperless, first account was set easily with paperless, second had to wait for activation code when i set up first account inorder to click paperless setting.

LOL. interesting to hear how she wiggles out of that. Probably with "the rules changed". To which, unfortunately. we as prospective customers, have nothing to add.....:sad:

I'll report back. DH hasn't opened any yet so if worse comes to worse he can do that whilst we are there.

Careful_ly

We opened 2 each online, then yesterday opened a joint account over the telephone.
But, although we were given the account number for the joint account, there is no sign of it on our internet banking.
I told the customer service we had 2 each, and she said it was fine to have a joint account too. I don't know what to make of it.


EDIT: Checked back online and joint account is now there, so it is possible to have 2 in single names and a joint account.

if the interest is paid monthly, is this a calander month or a month from the date opening the account?

if it is calander month when would be the best date to do the £500 standing order from 1 acc to the other, do i set them up for the 1st of the month or........?

dggar

After being declined an account when applying on line I went into my local branch to apply.

Only ID required was my passport.

The application was accepted, Account number issued, and the on line banking was activted in branch(together with making the statements paperless.)

I've now transferred £2K into the account.

would you guys be willing to post how many Plus accounts you ended up with, sole and joint, so I know whether to have another go at TSB (see my earlier post ...Number #635)


Thanks in advance!!

Two 'months' are involved here...

The interest month (they call it the monthly billing period), which runs from the 2nd working day of the month until the 1st working day of the next month. These are the interest earning days and interest is paid at the end of the 1st working day.

The funding month, which is a calendar month.

Both the above are explained on their website.
