    I opened a new one yesterday, intending to close the old one on 6 April. Can you switch from annual to monthly interest online (without human intervention)?

    I'm guessing Cahoot Sunny Day Saver.  Do I win a prize?

    how are people getting on generally with Cahoot accounts? i have an original 5% SDS but when trying to open the simple saver some time ago it never linked to my online login account. i opened another which was accepted but again never appeared online.
    i accept i never phoned cahoot but tried resolving via live chat and didn't get anywhere.

    How did you apply, were you logged in and started the application from there?

    Cahoot
    I've done both, logged in and not logged in.  The result is always the same - accounts open within couple of minutes and appear online immediately.  I have all accounts displayed on the same page, with the same login I've set up when opened my first Cahoot account.
