    Keep both / one of your Tesco bank accounts?

    ....and if you don't want a post office account, others will let you pay in at a post office, Starling springs to mind.
    Cash deposits made via the Post Office take a day to appear in the target bank account. Tesco is instant. I can pay the cash in at the Customer Services desk in Tesco, then pull my mobile out and move the money straight into the account I want it in.

    Edit: And furthermore, the queue in the Post Office is typically huge at lunch time when I would want to use it, and moves very slowly thanks to all the people sending off piles of eBay stuff. When I've needed the Post Office in the past, I've wasted half my lunch hour standing in the queue.

    I think it's because it's a poll. Everytime someone votes it gets treated as a new post. ( I think?). Pain on the arris.
    How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 3.24% of current retirement "pot" (as at end December 2025)

    Did you caste a vote in the poll?

    So even though you said you did not caste a vote, you actually did, and therefore subscribe to the thread - but then as you have been a member since 2014, one would hope you would know that.

    So as i mentioned originally, simply unsubscribe and you will not receive any further responses from this thread!!!

    Asking for a moderator to remove a thread because you are getting notifications, is somewhat drastic dont you think!! Think carefully about voting next time :)
