In your 6 access account choose "payments" - then you have 2 options - one is to your nominated account - the other is to something like "another account" - choose the second option and the you will be presented with the option to transfer internally to another Coventry account - choose your new 4 access account and complete the amount. I left £1 in my 6 access account paying 3.6% in case they increase the interest rate on that account. The whole process of opening the new 4-access and transferring the 6 access money took 10 or 15 minutes.

Opening a Coventry account has now become as massive faff involving mailing in an application form with photos of yourself holding your ID. No mention of just taking it into a branch. Last year I had an easy access account and it just opened online, there was none of this faff. Must be new KYC rules that have come in since then. 

I had the same, it was a right faff and haven’t been given anything, not even an email.

Has everyone else managed to sign up straightaway no issues?

No problem here with online opening the 4-Access .... literally a second to open after pressing the final application page "Apply" button ... it actually surprised me when I saw the account and sort code appear in a blink! Also, closed an older EA account to initially fund the 4-Access .... whole process took a couple of minutes from signing in, applying for the 4-Access, closing the old EA account with £1 in, and seeing the £1 appear in the 4-Access. No complaints here!

That should read 'if 4 or more...'

i.e. More than 3
