    I'd use it to make a payment just to be safe

    Is it possible to have 2 linked current account. 

    One for 45days notice, another one for  95 days notice???

    Checking the Help section within the app, I suspect not. 

    DD goes into a "green circle" thing before being sent to target account.

    No, I thought likewise but unfortunately there is only one linked account for both notice accounts.
    On the plus side it takes it weekly so qualifies as multiple direct debits for some account such as RBS/NatWest Rewards.
  • Anybody know of savings accounts that accept low DDs to them, I already have moneybox but need one more

    Are you looking for low DD because of Bank switching offer?  If yes then have a look at onepounddd, I have used them personally and found no issues.  I have low DDs wth Britannia Saver (part of Co-op) but they need £500 deposit at first which you can withdraw.  Chek out their website for more info and if they are still opening accounts.  Another I know is Post Office online saver but no one will recommend.  You can try them at your own risk. 

    Someone will add more for sure...

    Dunno if it's going to work, but I have added the donor account to PayPal and intend to try to pay using PayPal when I'm next in Wetherspoons and ordering from the app.

    Never used PayPal in the app before, preferring Google Pay, but prepared to give it a go this time, if it proves to trigger an active DD on the account.

    The other I shall be using is an Ecology Regular Saver. It's only 0.80%, but I shall be funding it with my monthly budget for Xmas 2022. Win, win. For me. Others may have different views.

    Not sure if anyone else has spotted this, but it appears MoneyBox now have an instant access account which allows either one-off or regular deposits via DD.

    With a catch:

    Withdraw the next working day, limited to one per calendar month

    I wonder what happens when you need to dip into your savings twice in that same calendar month (not researched)
  • Not likely to have much in that account if it is being used only to generate a direct debit.
  • Ok so i have moneybox set and working.....plum takes money via DD can anybody confirm if chip take money via DD can seem to find the answer on their website
