Hi
With this offer do I need to keep the direct debits active exec after they've paid out the £100 or can I cancel them as it states to earn the interest I need to deposit a minimum of £500 and go paperless whilst to get the £100 credit I need to register 3 direct debits (gonna go for PayPal, charity and magazine subscription)0 -
Another one 'not on the list' even though I followed the sign up process carefully. Wish me luck!0

will paypal be a suffiecient direct debit for this? I have paypal/mobile and gym only for this account in order to qualify?0

I applied online on 22nd of July and was accepted. I received my Debit card & PIN code, internet banking activation code and T&C to my email address. But there is another letter dated 23rd of July stating that my identity cannot be verified electronically and I need to go to a TSB branch with the necessary documents.
The problem is I am currently abroad and if I didn't go there in 14 days from the account opening they will close my account. Any idea what to do?
Thanks in advance0 -

2. Send someone armed with the "necessary documents" who can impersonate you (obviously not photo ID!)
3. Contact TSB and see what they can do
I'd go for 3 myself.0 -
I've just done this today and made the switch of my old account. I've also put a little in there to cover the DDs but won't be able to access it until they send the internet banking stuff in the post.
But my main question is: Do I need to set up the 3 DD's now or after the switch date as it appears to imply?0 -
Similar for me, rang on Saturday, (32 days after switch), asked to callback on Monday,(today), as the data base was only available to a manager and they don't work weekends.
Called today and was told yes I had made the criteria, no reason why not yet paid and told it will be in my account within the next 48 hours.0 -
... and was it? I had the same promise, and it still isn't there.
Not yet and am now at 37 days after switch completion and 72 hours afters I was told it would be credited within 48 hours.
I have just called TSB and am told it will be processed today and be showing in my account by 1100 tomorrow, (Friday), one can only wait and see!
