Bank of Scotland change T&Cs

From 1st September the Bank Of Scotland Classic Vantage account will require two different direct debits to be set up in order to receive credit interest, so if you have the max of 3 accounts that's 6 direct debits required.
Before ditching these accounts, I was wondering if there is any easy (and free) way of setting up direct debits to yourself?
TIA

Nigel

    You've got it, well done and good luck fj
  • May thanks. I notice the Tesco account sets up a direct debit as part of the application process, but does it allow you to set up more once it's opened? If it only allows one, then with three BOS accounts, 3 Tesco accounts would be required.
