    You can set up 2 direct debits via this method?  Have there ever been any examples of banks refusing to pay out switch bonuses if the DD's are from there, because surely it's obvious?
    Ever seen banks stipulating in their terms what source of DD is unacceptable ?

    Not a charity- but you can set up a DD to Park for their Christmas 'club'.
    I pay around £1.70 pm and at the end of their collecting period- 11 or 12 months get 2 x M&S £10 gift cards posted to me. (there are no admin charges.)
    Maybe you could choose just one £10 card?
    I have just started 'saving' for next year! That has been one easy DD but not covered by financial services.

    Personally I go by what they say on their TV ads or Websites £2 can ...... £3.......can etc.  None seem to say £1 can ..... So I have 4  DDs set up for amounts that the charities say can make a difference. (meets COOP rewards requirements).
    Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.
