Need to get some quick easy direct debits up and running for a bank account switch.
I have a list of the following, can anyone add any ideas or techniques they have tried?
* Tesco and Paypal are very useful, multiple DD's linked allowed on each
* Magazine Subs (http://magazinedeals.co.uk) There are many magazine companies on Quidco offering the £1 trials all with £1 cashback
* National Lottery
* Tesco Bank Savings Accounts INSTANT ACCESS SAVINGS ACCOUNT and
INTERNET SAVER (Lots of Direct Debit options, seems very popular on forums etc I have seen related to this)
PS - I have avoided charities due to 1) the DD cost for them and 2) being on the hook for calls/begging letters etc. but anyone knowing of any good low value minimum direct debits please post away for those not bothered by the above points.

The Tesco bank savings accounts (and similar accounts) are the best way to get direct debits. If you already have the current accounts, which you should so your getting the 3% interest, then they are quick and easy to setup and you can use them for as many DD as possible. It is also easy to control the amounts and timings and also it doesn't cost you any money.
So really there isn't any need to find othe ways to do it.0 -
And having an ongoing issue with Tesco failing to pull in DD's it's worth having a backup plan.0
