Best Account for Dummy DD's

Hi All,

I'm looking at doing the switching service to get the new customer bonus, but for accounts which say they require 2 DD's, i was going to just set up a DD debit from a dummy account of mine as I don't have many direct debits. Can somebody recommend a good easy account for creating DD?

Thanks
James

    See Set Up Direct Debits thread just a few lines below?

    And you can't set 2 different DDs to the same account from one account.

    It mentions a particular account. I'm not going to mention it again because the more times it gets mentioned the more chance there is of the DD facility getting pulled.

    If you spend some time reading the threads on here you'll see that a) any question you have about switching will have been answered before...times many, and b) the account I refer to above is mentioned often...too often!

    Goose and golden egg springs to mind.

    There's a thread about this on the Savings & Investments board.

    It's a bit worrying if people talk about dummy DDs and dummy accounts as there is no such thing. An account that you can feed with DDs is very much a real thing, as are the DDs.
