TSB up to £200 switch & stay offer - February 1 2023

Ghostcrawler

Did anyone got email from TSB that "your 6-month cashback period ends soon, but nothing else is changing" whereas the account was created in Nov/Dec as per pevious switch offer of £180?  I still have couple of months remaining to complete full 6 months but still got the email.

Does anyone know if Paypal + Moneybox are acceptable "Direct Debits" to have on the switching account?

I've chosen to take the least liberal interpretation of the T&Cs; open doner account, set up 2 new direct debits, wait until both direct debits have paid out, initiate switch to TSB. Easier to play by the rules I find, less room for ambiguity.

And given the option, I'd go this way also.

However having only noticed this thread a couple days ago, it doesn't give me enough time to move a direct debit over to a sacrificial account, have it in place ready & then switch.

In short I've missed the boat but it is what it is. Hopefully I spot the next one in good time.

yes I do, but you can only have DD on their regular savings and no easy access.  Alo there is minimum £25 deposit through DD, check out their website for more info, they have also increased their rates which is good.  Others are mentioned quite often - Moneybox, Plum and also onepounddd.  You can check out this post on MSE - https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5734632/savings-accounts-accepting-dds/p1

7th November 2022 is when Ecology last increased their rates, I've just checked the website and cannot see another more recent increase. Was this the one you were referring to please?
