Hi, sorry to jump in, I was just wondering if you could help me with a question.

I have just opened my 2nd bos vantage current account as im approaching my 1st 5k savings! (Never thought id ever be able to say that!) I was planning on having my salary paid into the 1st then transfer it to the 2nd.......does this count towards the minimum pay in or does it need to be an external source? I will have 2 direct debits for each account.

I'm new to all the savings stuff and just want to make sure I'll be doing the right thing.

Many thanks

You need to check the T&Cs.

HINT if it doesn't specify that minimum monthly deposits must come from an external source, then they don't have to;)

I have 3x BOS vantage, what I do is when I get paid on the 15th from BOS1 to BOS2 from BOS2 to BOS3 than to Nationwide to TSB to Tesco bank.
