Hi
I need to transfer some money from my Barclays account to Tesco savings via the individual apps.
Problem is there doesn't seem to be an option to 'pay in' to the Tesco Bank app from another account.
Also, in the Barclays app, Tesco Bank comes up as having different bank details than on my savings account.
There is the 'Pay By Bank' feature but it asks for a retailer's code.
I can input my Tesco Savings account details into 'New Payee' in Barclays app but it doesn't recognize them as a business.
I used to be able to do this ok on the website versions, but thought I would be able to via the apps.
Any help appreciated.

Tesco savings account shouldn't be a business it should be a person if you have a specific sort code and accountRemember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.2

Pay yourself as an individual Person (not a Business). In the Barclays app, Add new payee > Enter bank details, enter your name (as registered with Tesco Bank) as the payee name, as well as the sort code and account number of your Tesco Bank savings account. Tesco Bank is not part of Confirmation of Payee so the check will fail; just make sure the details you enter are accurate.1
