New Bank Account to start switching offers
liger
Posts: 53 Forumite
I need to open a new bank account which I can then use for switching offers once setting up a couple of DDs. Which bank account is the easiest to open?

Chase - Quick and easy to setup, no hard credit check and you can create multiple sub accounts which can be used for switching as and when offers come up.

Agree with above, just make sure you seem one account open.

I use Chase for my donor accounts, just make sure to open 2 and always keep at least one open at all times. If you only have one account an then close it, you can't open more. Else, just open a secondary account with your primary bank.
As for DDs, some good ideas in the thread below. I shuffle around household bill DDs for long-term rewards, else I use MoneyBox, Plum, Currensea and PayPal when I need something that needs to move around a lot.
