Can someone else pay into my savings account?

I have a savings account in addition to a normal current account with lloyds.

If I give them my account num and sort code for the savings account, can they pay into that?

Ok then, I will give you my savings account details and you can send some money to me and I will tell you if I get it😀

Seriously though I regularly send money into one of my sons savings accounts with Lloyds, as long as the sort code and account number is used.

Some can, some can't. If you put the sortcode into a checker it should give you an indication whether it will accept payments from external sources.

Automated payment or over the counter? If the latter, which bank?

I think it depends on the bank and if the account is a standalone one or connected to your main current account x
