How long to wait to open BOS account 2+3?

Options
I opened a nationwide flexdirect, club lloyds and BOS vantage account yesterday and prompty filled them up. I have more to move and want additional BOS vantage accounts, I understand you can have 3 max.

Any harm in applying for additional accounts today? Or should I wait a certain amount of time?

FWIW, I have a very good credit history.

    I think I opened no 2 a couple of weeks later when no 1 was up and running and the debit card had arrived.
    Being polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything!

    There have been many discussions on this in the past.

    For some of us, myself included, it was necessary to open numbers 2 & 3 by phone, whereas more recently, some have been able to open 3 almost simultaneously.

    Give it a go? and please report back.

    I've since opened a saver and also put some money into a few other things. I'll have enough in 10 days time to fill a couple of BOS accounts so will make sure they are ready for then, and update this thread.

    Cheers
