Government Help to Save account - regular payment.

26 Posts

Hi everyone, stupid question alert!
What account name are you using when setting up a regular payment to the Help to Save account? Everything I have tried has bounced back, and I can’t see anything on .gov, only the bank details.
Thanks

You can verify that you are using the correct sort code and account number because you can pay in any amount between £1 up to a maximum of £50 a month. As long as you don’t exceed the £50 monthly limit, you can pay into the account as many times as you want. So use the 'trick' we have been using for years - send £1 first. Then check whether it has arrived in your HTS account (this may not be instant). Once you have seen the £1, you can then send your remaining contributions to this self-verified payee.
