Do you think I could get away with 3 TSB bank accounts in my household:
1 for me
1 for my wife and
1 joint?
Thanks
That's not 'getting away' with anything, that's complying with the T&C, which I assume you've read

I can't grumble too much.
This will now become my 'spending money' account, so will still serve a purpose. Then again, I might pull the lot and throw it at my S&S ISA!0 -
Hi all,
After being with Nationwide's varies accounts since I was 14 (over 13 years ago!) I finally switched to Halifax and took advantage of their £125 switching bonusThank you very much!
My question is: The transfer finished about 1-2 weeks ago. How long should I wait until I switch again? Are there any T&Cs that might mean me losing the Halifax £125 etc?
My end goal was to end up with a First Direct account and stick with it, but I would wait until they increased their bonus back to £125... which they've done sooner than I anticipated! Any reason I should start a switch to them now and keep my time at Halifax to a minimum?!
Thanks

There's no reason to wait, except to make sure that you have the Halifax £125 in your account before you do so.0 -
Excellent, thanks.
I appreciate it may affect my credit score, but hopefully not too much, and not for too long!

Steve_xx is correct, but have you got the Halifax Rewards account? £5 free money every month (check the T&C!).
If you haven't, can you upgrade to it? If you already have the Rewards account, why not open another account with Halifax, and use that one to switch to FD, or wherever?0
