I'd argue it comes down to exactly how they word it, but I suspect they wouldn't be asking that question if it wasn't going to play into their decision to offer you an account.

I believe it may be for anti money laundering, the same as they ask how much you're going to pay in each money and where it's coming from. Also if you say no they may send you down a different marketing pathway.

Said no. Account opened.
I'd rather be truthful, and risk being rejected, than tell porkies, opening myself up to potential problems further down the road.

I answered yes and if they ever queried it later, all I would say is I changed my mind after using the account.

Thanks all, I did go with a yes in the end thinking it wouldn't make much difference, only slight problem now is one of the accounts we want to transfer is a joint so will have to go into a branch to start the transfer.

I'd also like a joint account but don't think I can convince Mr badger09 to venture into shopping centre to open it.
