Transfer to a fixed bond account by mistake

mastersb

Hi, I was trying to transfer into my eSavings account and transfer the funds twice by mistake to the fixed bond account, and now I can't transfer them back . Tried calling the online help desk but they can't help!

PS: Its Lloyds accounts

Pleas help! What can I do now?

Your only chance other than to wait for the bond to mature would be to try too convince Lloyds it was an error, but you'll have to try pretty hard I think.

No withdrawals or additional deposits allowed and no cancellation period once the account has been funded

Did you transfer to an existing bond or a new one? If it's an existing bond then they may just reject the transfer as an additional payment.

"
You have 10 days from account opening to fund the account.

That may mean any number of deposits are permitted for 10 days rather than a single deposit.

Is there any cooling off period?

This was the second thread opened by the OP on the subject. In the first thread the problem is said to have been solved.

Got it sorted out thanks! Went to local lloyds branch, they first were saying its not possible. I had to argue with them and then they asked a local manager, who signed the form and the funds are back!!
