    ED-1 has a point ,
    A very good point "which may or may not scupper using savings accounts long term" for multiple DD card deposits and withdrawals .

    Hopefully the savings account route will last a while.
    Rather than resorting to Pinget or other payment platforms with zero customer help when it goes wrong .
    KRBS didn't take my multiple COOP debit card deposits kindly. I can no longer make online debit card deposits with them.
    I don't know why people bother with the Coop 5ps. It's hardly worth the effort/risk of abusing facilities!

    Have KRBS withdrawn your debit card facility or just told you to stop using it?

               Colsten knows how to use Pingit so PM message her if shes not got her knickers in a twist now having just got some of her own medicine from you .

    Personally I do hope Pingit and the savings account DC spend options carry on working  (so far) .
    So I wouldnt take on board Colstens  savings  account 500 spend negativity just yet .

     As she didnt offer a solution  or any help at all ......only a doom and gloom opinion that has come about via her over making 60 DC payments for a total of £3 profit .

    60 Debit card payments in return of £3.00, you are abusing yourself and you might be breaking the law becuase you are getting paid lower than minimum wage, lol

    Not sure how you conclude I have made 60 debit card payments - but if it helps: I haven't.

    @TOP_CAT: I would appreciate if you did not invite people to PM me. And for the avoidance of doubt: I will not be responding to any PMs asking me about debit card payments. What I have to say on the matter I will say in open forum.

    I just tried to use Pingit.

    I have to input the 16 digits number, they do not allow me to copy and paste the Debit Card number into the electronic form anymore. I remember I was able to do it in the past. Has anyone managed to copy and paste the 16 digits number recently? Thanks

    There are very useful browser extensions that allow you to override websites' control over the paste function.

    Dunno if it's been mentioned but do paying off credit card by debit card count?

    Yes it does. I did it in June and it has tracked reward for me, so done for July too.

    That's good. My stoozing cycle is coming to an end in next 5 or 6 months & have got quite a bit of debt to clear. And with interest rates what they are & I'm tempted to scale down things somewhat
    (might also try the final balance on car finance which would be a one off)

    I am in the same boat..my 0% card is coming to an end and paying £500 helps. By that time I will know from this forum what type of payment works.

    Has everyone got their  £5  reward in July?  I still do not have....  I did all the right things, transferred in £1500 and spent £500 on my debit card.  The app even tracked I would get £5...   Should I have got this by now?
