Is there a benefit to keeping extra accounts open or should I close them?

Thanks, it seems often with the switch deals though that the account needs to have some DD's set up on it or actively be used but if these spare accounts are just there without being used you couldn't just switch from them right? I'd have to set up some DD's I guess.

The deals might require DDs to be setup but only to receive that offer. Switching requires no DDs at all and you can switch any suitable account with the CASS service so yes you can just switch them as I have recently done with the old TSB accounts.
