  • Seen this before 😂😂

    for the first six months from account opening, new customers will be able to earn £5 cashback every month when they make 30 payments or more on their debit card each month.
  • Can't see it on their website just yet. 
  • It says in the coming weeks. Existing customers will see changes in the app from tomorrow.

    It says "Today, TSB has launched a new everyday current account"

    And then, at the very end, under Notes to Editors: "
    Spend and Save will be available to open to new customers in the coming weeks"

    In any case, this will be an account I will pass on. 30 debit card transactions for a monthly fiver, but only for 6 months. 

    I am genuinely surprised they haven't announced the end of the TSB Plus.

    Or the end of TSB. Surprised they haven't put themselves up for sale.

    I personally didn’t know anything about until I received an email today, saying they’d wrote to me about this it but I don’t remember seeing the communication 🙄

    I know what I says - I clearly read it. Come on, that's pretty pedantic even by your standards. You've typed nothing extra than I did - it does still say "in the coming weeks"! 

    They close the plus (interest part) and they'll likely lose most their customers - me included!

    This, presumably being the old classic. Not the classic plus? Or is it one & the same (I don't recall)....

    Classic account, not Classic Plus. Although I fully expect the Classic Plus to gradually wither on the vine.
