    TSB is barely keeping its head above water too and I doubt this will help.
    How much do you think a single prime time TV advert costs? Or a spread in a daily newspaper?

    £72,500 isn't even a drop in the ocean.

    So here's my plan, maybe?
    Take 5K out of my isa to linked account, then transfer to TSB current account. Then, 48 hours later, return to my original account. Then back to isa.
    Does that sound OK?

    If you plan on doing this on 29th or 30th September I think it should be fine. It needs to still be in your TSB account when the promotion ends.

    Ok, I'm tempted. :)

    Terrible idea, don't do it.

    (that's one more competitor in the draw sorted out)
