    £240/£10 does not breach the T&Cs. The £10 is to meet the minimum deposit, while the £240 makes the total deposited up to the maximum monthly deposit allowed.

    I get that. So the total £250 MAKES THE SAME AS £250 ONLY.Obviously we all want 2 x 250??

    My preference, if I had the choice, would be to put a lump sum in at the start and keep it there. That would also breach the terms.
