    I used the LloydsTSB switching service & basically they write to all the companies asking them to change the DD for you. However a lot of co-s don't take any notice, but Lloyds lists all your DDs on your account. So I thought everything had transfered sucessfully.

    Most companies were understanding & allowed me to pay over the phone or setup a new DD directly. There needs to be a more efficient system. Lloyds say that if the DD isn't moved, all they do is write to the company again after 3 months. What use is that?!

    What else can they do? If the originating d/d company ignore the transfer request how are LTSB to blame? If I were you I would get the D/D companies to pay YOU some compo for your inconvienience (once of course they have been advised of your new account details).
