TSB- 2 switching questions!

meggles88

Hi everyone!

Currently switching my bank from Barclays to TSB! I have two direct debits set up on my Barclays account already. Do I need to open 2 new direct debits to get the bonus or will the current DD's count towards the bonus?

Also as the bank redirects the original direct debits for how ever many months does this mean I have to manually transfer them to the companies I am paying to or will they automatically be transferred? I'm worried that once the bank stops redirecting my bills won't be paid!!

Thank you for all your help x

You don't need to set up any additional DDs if you have got 2 already.

Re-directing your DDs simply means that the bank tells the sending bank to use your new sort code and account number from now on. The sending bank will do so until they are being told differently (e.g. by another switch) at some stage in the future.
