    The Marcus website now says to contact the Customer Care team if you’d like to know more. Just tried. They have no info to share. Just refer you back to the webpage . Not a good start
  • I think I will wait to make sure it settles okay! It is a bit like computer upgrades, I always wait a week or so to make sure the bugs have been ironed out !!
    Thank you for reading this message.

    Has anyone tried to do Faster Payments out how long does it take to arrive to the other end ?

    Could you do faster payment to other current accounts (not just single link account).

    Yes, minutes or almost instant and no, read the main thread in the link above
  • If I were to close my AA Easy Saver account early, will I still get the full amount of interest earned up to the close date?

    I've scanned through the Ts&Cs and can't see anything regarding this.

    Could you not leave the minimum in there and keep it open ?

    Tesco Internet saving is currently 1.36%.
    If you have an a/c paying lower than 1.36% You might want to open this one and cancel the old one paying less than 1.36%.

    If you need that you will need to be quick as it is not uncommon they will reduce the interest again within a week.
