First Direct, been accepted for 2 savings account...

First Direct, been accepted for 2 savings account...but I haven't heard about my current account application. Is this usual?

I wouldn't have though they would set me up savings accounts without first approving my current account application? Has anyone else had an experience like this? Was your current account approved/declined.

I really want the current account because I like the idea of the 'sweep facility' to start saving a little bit. So really hope I get accepted, kinda pointless having a savings account with them and no current account?

Sorry, I did trawl back through the threads but couldn't see any that were similar.
