As others have suggested, it's Lloyds' open banking transfer limit. With Tandem you can just send via Faster Payment and can use the payee previously set up via Open Banking.

Does anyone know where this limit is stated - trying to find someone in Lloyds who even understands what I'm asking is a challenge?

Santander's 5.2% offering looking very good now for the many that have it after today's rate hold decision.

Until they cut it!

Terms state they give 2 months notice so they could give notice very early or not. Whilst 99% of other accounts will apply cuts immediately/1-2 weeks.

I wouldn't waste time chasing this up, TBH. Logging into your Lloyds online banking and making the payment yourself will take a similar amount of time as 'pulling' via Open Banking from Tandem.

Just noticed that Charter have launched their EA Issue 45 at 4.95% AER (4.84% Gross/Monthly)

Re Tandem Instant Access, I just tried to send them 8k through Open Banking from Lloyds and it failed due to above the daily limit. I then tried 5K was went through OK.

According to True Layer's web site, the limit through Lloyds is £99,999 and Lloyds own limit is £25,000.

Any ideas why there was a problem?

TIA

It should be 25k (daily total) for domestic payments for a personal retail account (not private banking) if the holder is over the age of 19 if the payment context code is set to Pay Person / Contact. If it’s set to eCommerce, eCommerce Services or other then the limit is 5k. The PCC is set by the 3rd party provider (not Lloyds).

It's the right direction of travel but still not competitive. I cleared down my Issue 42 (4.8%) yesterday and it's now in Secure at 5.03% (Santander 5.2% already done). 
Could do with Coventry Four Access being upped from 4.8%.

It is still 5.2%.

Santander have a history of not making knee jerk rate changes. They appear to deliberate after some significant movements in the BR and then give reasonable notice of a change disadvantageous to customers.

Why would they cut it, the boe rate didn't move down today?
