Anyone had problems making payments to NS&I with their debit card to invest? I keep getting card declined and my bank says its not them (payment not blocked) and NS&I say its the bank

i opened one this morning £20k no issues but it did say something along the lines of it having to be checked even though i have another bond and prem bonds with them.0

One think I did notice was I'd not got a nominated account set up.
(The application process wouldn't progress until I added one as part of the process.)
As the application failed twice, I added it via the profile, it's there but the application still wants me to add one and doesn't show the one I've just configured.
So plan b, wait a couple of hours and see if it sorts itself out0 -
Purchased 2. Both times asked to set up nominated account, the same account as nominated for my PB payments and other NS&I accounts including the first GIB. Usual NS&I rubbish1
