Yeh I used the wrong wording but the meaning was the same whoever provides their savings accounts has changed. There is now 2 log in buttons on the saga page, seems to make things clearer.

I think I had to do the selfie thing for saga just a photo of ID then a video of you moving your head side to side.

Interesting. I think I will still go with them. Payments reach them instantly from my bank, are withdrawals as quick as in true INSTANT access?

I only made the comment as it is a very unusual, (I've never come across it before) condition. Most accounts that have a withdrawal limit have a time fixed in the day when the clock resets. It must be a very unique software that counts down the hours for each individual as to when they can withdraw further funds.

Santander operates the same way when calculating how much you can withdraw.

Interesting. I had an account with Santander a few years back but never noticed this. Do Cahoot also operate this system (although much less likely to be an issue as they have a 100K daily withdrawal limit)?

Yes, both Cahoot and Santander do the same.

The only difference between the two is Cahoot have a online transaction limit of £24,999.99 for some reason, while Santander is £25k
