£1 direct debit WIN-WIN!

When you need extra direct debit(s) to comply with switching banks... I just set up one with the Fire Fighters' Lottery. You have a chance of winning a smallish prize, and if you don't then you know you have helped our firefighters. https://www.firefighterscharity.org.uk/donate/play-our-lottery/

Stupid question! What if I took out a new credit card and set the monthly repayment to be the full balance by DD. Each month I use the card to buy one pint of milk. (Or a single second class stamp, or some minor item I was going to buy anyway). Would this not qualify?

Others have posted caveats stating that some CC issuers may not collect when the monthly total is low.

So make it a few quarts.
