Does anyone know, do these have to be two different DDs, or will a weekly DD (to moneybox) count?

(I'm trying to simplify my finances, and have lost a couple of DDs)

A weekly DD would be fine. The same goes for the NatWest/RBS and Co-op rewards.

BIB Scheme is ending 31 May

Just found a DD form for Family BS (opened their Market Tracker Cash ISA now that multiple ISAs are allowed) but there doesn't seem to be anything for the amount. Half the form is marked for society use only. Do they definitely take DDs?

I was unaware such a form existed. I've just queried this with them and it seems they they don't allow DD deposits into savings accounts so I would imagine it is a legacy DD form. If anyone has any luck setting up DDs into their savings accounts do let me know though.

Has anyone else found the keyboard on the plum app has become invisible. I went to log in to the app and this appeared:

I was able to input my pin and log in by pressing where the buttons used to be but it took a few attempts.

Working as normal for me too, for now. I recall having a similar issue a while back but it seemed to eventually sort itself out.

I've just added Zing to the debit card deposits list. Further details are on the first page. Of note is that they are currently offering a refer a friend offer in which both you and your friend will receive £20 if your friend signs up and spends £5+ on the card.

A reminder do NOT use this thread to request/exchange referral links.

Strange it would seem that Family Building Society doesn’t count towards round ups for the NatWest/RBS Reg Saver anymore? Anyone else had this?

Edit: It counted on 7th, but not today?

The round ups are only processed when the debit card transaction is cleared, not when it happens, which isn't totally intuitive, it can take a few days. Other than that I'm not with Family personally so can't help, sorry

They have already been processed and not put in as round ups that's why I'm wondering if something has changed

Are you sure you've kept enough in the current account to cover the round ups? Roundups won't occur if doing so would take you into an unarranged OD.
