    Brill so just need £1500 in each, transfer £500 from external account to account one, then on to account two, then back to original external account. :beer:

    PLUS i'm pretty sure they do not need any direct debits with these accouncts either - TSB Classic.

    Thansk

    Have a re-read of badger's reply.

    No need to involve any external account. Just set up a standing order from account 1 to account 2 and another standing order from account 2 to account 1 on the same date.

    Those dates are too close together.

    Why ? what you recommend i changed them to ?

    I presumed BT were instant regardless of weekends/Bank holidays...

    That's why i allowed 2 days, sould it be 3 or 4 ??

    Thanks

    If you're putting £1,500 in each TSB account (as you earlier said you were), and will never drop below £500, there's no need to leave any time between transfers. Make them all the same day.


    I'm not sure why the previous poster suggested they were too close together?

    That' what i was thinking....Cheers....

    Might see if i can open another account now....lol

    It seems if you already hold a TSB classic account and you apply via their new deal, you get rewarded with another classic account !!!:T
