    So can you have 1x sole and 1x joint Club Lloyds? But not 2x sole Club Lloyds?
    If previous posts are to be believed it appears there are legacy positions tolerated/not found;
    or Lloyds has holes in its ac checking algorithms;
    or it decides who it applies the official terms to on a personal basis; 
    or we have some comprehension mismatch between what people are discussing and what some are reporting.
    I think there's some truth in this. On a Halifax SAR there was a note from the "Applications Team" when I applied for a 7th Reward account saying "customer is allowed 7 Reward accounts open. Any more applied for will be declined and closed." So I applied for Current Accounts after that and upgraded them to Rewards! (Said loophole is now closed.)
  • Tried switching a Tesco account to Club Lloyds but I dont have an active debit card so cant progress online.

    If I downgrade my Club Lloyds current account , will I loose the monthly saver of 1% as well?  does any one know?

    Unless they have recently changed their systems and processes, the RS remains unaffected.

    If your Tesco account doesn't have a card, just skip the question and continue with the switch application.

    Personal Banking Terms And Conditions and Banking Charges (lloydsbank.com) Page 7 para 3/4:

    "Customers may hold a maximum of one account with Club Lloyds benefits (either a Club Lloyds account or an Added Value current account with a Club Lloyds benefits package) in their sole name and one in joint names. No more than two customers may hold any one Club Lloyds account or have a Club Lloyds benefits package added to their account." 


    If previous posts are to be believed it appears there are legacy positions tolerated/not found;
    or Lloyds has holes in its ac checking algorithms;
    or it decides who it applies the official terms to on a personal basis; 
    or we have some comprehension mismatch between what people are discussing and what some are reporting.

    I've been a 'player' since the inception of 'Club' terms, and I've never been given the option when following their application selection process  to open a 2nd solo with Club benefits, and I have held joint and solo club acs simultaneously.

    I've never tried opening a 2nd solo by phone, so ...?

    Opening a joint in either circumstances involves a branch visit, unless policy has changed under pandemic conditions.

    eta clarity
    I have never had an issue in applying for more. I have four at the moment and did have five but cancelled the newly opened one because I realised I would not  qualify for the incentive. Even though they state clearly the criteria for opening more of the accounts perhaps it is also done on a more personal basis. I have been with them for nearly 40 years so perhaps that may mean something. Purely guess work of course.
  • If you apply online as an existing Club Lloyds customer then you are not given the choice of opening another Club Lloyds account. 
  • Tried to switch but got declined. I switched to them back in I think 2018 for another offer, I took the money and ran, in out in less than a month.  I get the impression they didn't like this, Halifax done similar. Do these banks put you on a black list if you do this?

    Sorry if I did not make it clear but I have four of the Lloyds Club  current accounts.  It would appear I am highly thought of.
