Apologies if this has been asked before: Any ideas how to get another 2 zombie direct debits (as this switch requires 4). I usually do Tesco Internet Saver and Paypal, but struggling to get another 2

Set up some more from your Tesco account. You'll need to put in a different nickname every time for it to set another one up to the same account.

Similar Question... I have 2 zombie direct debits going to 2 YBS accounts on a now non interest earning (as of this month) Lloyds Vantage account but need 4 active ones to get the switching incentive.


Can I set up 2 more DD's with the same YBS accounts such that they are on different dates i.e fortnightly deductions?


The Coop T&C's just state..


3.3. switch in a minimum of four active Direct Debits to your new current account, which must remain active until the incentive payment is made.

EDIT: Cross Posted ... answered above ... Thanks!

Applied for, and got, my 3rd Co-op account as couldn't resist another cashback reward - this time of £131.25)

But I applied for this account via quidco , who are only paying £40, and I claimed under its highest cashback guarantee to try and ensure I get £131.25 - thus avoiding the chance of being declined by TCB in case there's a "one only" policy

The highest guarantee claim was agreed by quidco within a few hours!

UPDATE

My cunning plan failed

I got a letter form Co-op saying that my application has been approved in principle, with sort code and account numbers, and the next day I got a letter saying my application had been declined.

I suspect it was when they realised I had 2 current accounts already with them..?

Can't win them all!

And still waiting for the cashback from the first 2 applications (£157.75 and £105) which are still in "pending" on topcashback.

Also just noticed that the "estimated payable" period has increased to 29 weeks , from a previous 12 weeks (I think)

I've now done this and now have multiple Tesco direct debits showing on the donor account - they are all of the form
12 digit number/5 digit number, however the 12 digit number is the same in each tesco direct debit - will this count as a separate direct debit?

Yes as they are different mandates (i.e. separate DDs).
