    Post Office is stopping direct debits from March 2022 so we will need to find somewhere else that allows direct debts beside PayPal, national lottery, IF
    What is IF?

    Just applying online for the Club Lloyd's account online intending to switch from Starling. Never had any accounts/products with Lloyd's before. 
    Got as far as inputting all my personal details employer, income etc.....then I get a message 'it looks like something has gone wrong'. So I tried to go back on the browser but then got a message stating 'Lloyd's pevent you from going back to stop multiple searches occurring ".
    Have I been declined or is was it a technical error ? 
    The screen  prior to 'it looks like something has gone wrong' said PCA boarding at the top  if that means anything to anyone?
    Be careful.

    I had that issue on both mobile and online, eventually getting it through on fifth attempt.

    Credit report showed five hard searches. Each attempt had been logged.

    Called Customer Services who have filled in a form to get four of them removed, though won't know for month or two whether that has worked.

    Does anyone know is having 2 Direct Debits to pay off credit cards will count to get the interest on the money held in the account?
    Any 2 direct debits is fine.

    "Best" is very subjectve.
    The magazines can be worth around £60 a year, but they're limited in their subjects.
    The cinema tickets way less than that.
    We had the food card thing for two years, used it maybe twice.
  • Hello
    I have just applied for the Club Lloyd's account and to switch my account.
    I have realised after that the account I am switching  is in my first and surname only and I have given Lloyd's my middle name too. 
    Will this be a problem in qualifying for the £100 switching incentive?
    Thank you in advance

    Just received a letter from Lloyds saying they cannot switch the account from Santander and I have to speak with Santander to find out why they couldn't do it.

    The funny part is, Lloyds already deposited £100 in my Lloyds account as an incentive for the switch. I'm curios how long is gonna take for them to take it back.

    A quick update: Today I received a letter from Santander saying how sorry they are that I am leaving and switch to Lloyds and they will send me a statement 2 days prior closing my account.

    Now, my questions is: is this switch gonna go through or not?

    The cinema tickets are valid in the fancy Odeon Luxe cinemas, so you can get £60 worth of them :)

    Which is best part of 100 miles away from me. :P
    I suspect most people don't have a "lux" Odeon near them.

    Still surprises me why they don't offer magazines from Bauer Media - a heap of choice there.

    Or more. We don't have an Odeon near us, but visited my daughter and took the two of them to the pictures. Fancy screen, with leather recliners and tickets were almost £15 each. They don't seem to quibble at any screen, or any showing.  Looks like the other two tickets will be wasted unfortunately, as we are running out of time.
