    Hi Danny ... I also was declined, but I think in my case it is because I have too many accounts, nine including three ECAs. I have just requested the two oldest of these 'redundant' accounts be closed (it can take five days) and then I will try again.  :D
    I have a lot of accounts with them that are never used. 2 Edge Currents and Savers, 3 EDs. Only the 2 Savers are used. So 7 at present.

    Others such as their ISA and their higher interest savings accounts which are no longer worth having I've already closed.

    I think I'll close the 3 EDs today and try again in a week. See how it goes.
    ... I presume EDs means Everyday Current Account ... you may want to keep your most recent, i.e. the £25 VoucherSent is riding on.

    Yes, Everyday Current Account. I kept the one for the £25 gift card open and requested closure of the other 2 via Sandi. Once I get the gift card I'll close that one as well. Not sure it will make any difference with getting declined, but will give it a try.

    I'm confused and need help about this discussion. I already have an Everyday current account (previously known as 123). Would opening an Edge account make me eligible for the £30 Amazon Voucher? I can't find the answer. Thanks!

    Yes, once you follow the link (posted earlier in this thread) and are accepted for an Edge account by Santander.
