I already have a direct debit setup on my donor account for paypal but its never paid out, does this matter? does it have to been paid atleast once for it to be "active"?

I would say just top up your Paypal account once, you can transfer it back once it in the account.

If you have the app:

- Tap your balance
- Tap Add Money
- Select amount and click next
- choose the payment method

and it should be added in 5 days.

I have a current account paying four DD payments a month to post office savings. But is that one DD or 4 for the purposes of the Nationwide switch?

That is, if all to the same PO account, one DD isn't it?  One DD instruction? So one DD, unless to multiple PO accounts..

The T&C don't mention any need for the DDs to be per month, so I think the month angle is irrelevant.

I found myself in a very strange situation with PO. For some reason it doesn't allow to use one current account with several saving accounts (one needs a separate current account for each saving account). Back in June I closed the PO account to which Co-Op DD was going to. However, the DD is still showing as active in Co-Op online banking. Meanwhile, the PO account disappeared from the list. At the same time, I cannot link the Co-Op account to another PO saver, because they claim "they already have the Co-Op account on record".  I am totally confused with this situation.

Anyone know how Nationwide are with former accounts? I switched my Nationwide last September for the Halifax deal. I know some banks are a bit unforgiving if you've recently switched an account with them..

Also assuming a hard search as its a current account?

Terms and conditions questions

• You’ve previously benefitted from this offer, as set out at clause 4.

Currently I have a joint Nationwide account which I opened for the benefit of 0% overdraft interest for 12 months. I did not had a joint acc previously with Nationwide.

I did receive switching offer on my sole and my wifes sole account pteviously.

I am correct in saying I can switch account to joint with 2 paid DDs we should be eligible for the incentive?

If I open a sole account in my name that acc would not be eligible?

Thanks

I’m going to be switching a HSBC donor account for this offer. I’ve set up vodafone and PayPal direct debits and a charity. As long as 2 of these are active before the switch they don’t need to have actually paid out yet do they?
