                    Hi I have recently opened a current account with first direct through this site so will get £125 for switching 
   I am now going to start the actual switch from my current bank TSB,  I have 3 current accounts with TSB, a graduate acc thats overdrawn (no interest till 2016) a TSB plus thats got £2000 in it, and a normal current acc that im wanting to switch,  If i switch this acc to first direct will the other 2 accounts close aswell or just the one with the details I give to first direct ?
Thanks
                Thanks

What's the overdraft limit on the graduate account out of interest?0 - 
            I think graduate account will also be good, otherwise the previous one is the best option.0

            yes, just take advantage of the best terms from each bank..
keep the 0% overdraft, and you might aswell leave it as high as the 0% limit..
and if you can afford to, FD's Regular Saver, paying 6%, is market leading.0
