Look here ! Switch away. ££££

If you need more a/c's to switch just open some up. Direct debits may be a bit of a problem (if needed), but see the discussions on MSE to resolve.
Oh, and by the way - WELCOME

For HSBC Advance it says switching including at least two Direct Debits or Standing Orders.

Presumably setting up two standing orders from this account to two of my other accounts will be sufficient to meet the criteria for the £175 offer bonus.

I've read all the terms and that seems to be what it's saying - almost seems too good to be true!

(I'm running out of Direct Debits to share around now!!)

From which account? Your post reads as though you think you can set them up on the HSBC account, when the T&Cs clearly state they must already be set up on, and switched from, the old account.

I've already done all the switch account for reward offers - with my own account. Can I switch and get the reward(s) again by moving my joint account?

It will depend on the T&Cs of each individual switch incentive.

Some definitely specify one incentive only, some will pay a 2nd incentive if 1st was before a certain date, others allow multiple incentives.

Is there any fake DD option now? It's been a while since Tesco Bank stopped offering the functionality

I really wouldn't bother with Tesco. They have written to say that they are reducing the interest rates on their accounts from 0.55% (gross) to 0.35% on 24 October.


Earlier this year they reduced the rate on their Current Account from 3% to 1%


I suspect they want to come out of banking, and hoping their customers will move away.

As of today, buried in the Best Bank Accounts article is a new RBS £150 switch offer!

Why bury it there!!

I've just switched to RBS for the £150 switching bonus but no mention of the bonus when I switched and I have had a look round for the switch terms and conditions (re the bonus) on the RBS website and I can't find anything that mentions a switching bonus. The only reference I can find to a bonus is on here and other money comparison websites. Can anyone help?
