    Useful benefit of the new Skipton - deposit by debit card which takes care of half the requirements for the Halifax/Natwest monthly cash-back.  
    Experiencing difficulties with depositing by card. Tried 2 different cards.

    Anyone else?
    Must be Halifax or Natwest card. Have you tried those?

    The debit card must be registered to same address as your Skipton account or payment will fail with the message 'Try again later', which of course won't work later either.

    Solution is to tick the box 'Use someone else's card' and manually enter the debit card address.

    @schiff so what is this monthly cashback that you think you can get by using a NatWest Debit Card to pay in to a savings account?

    I made a couple of deposits into my Skipton Tracker savings account this morning using a Debit Card (that was neither NatWest nor Halifax).

    In the past Saffron does not allow you to have two RSA with them at the swam time. When you take your chance, they will close close it in about a week time so waste of time applying. But this new 9% is different. Is that correct ??
    "You can only hold one Members Month Loyalty Saver, as well as one regular savings product at any time with Saffron."

    There have been occasions in the past where Saffron allowed a 'special' RS account alongside one of the standard/small RS accounts. (i.e. two in total)

    The last time I remember was the 170th Birthday RS account.

    It worked after I ticked the ‘Use another persons card’ box, despite paying with a card that’s in my name. 

    i think it’s because my account is so old that my personal details aren’t up to date.
