My first stooze :)

in Credit cards
I've just completed my first stooze!
£2700 of Citibank's money (routed via Egg, don't worry!) earning me interest in a Halifax Web Saver at 4.5%. Thank you very much!
It would be in my Egg 5.5% account but at the moment I only have an electron card, which you can't pay into Egg with. So I'll have to figure out a way of getting it between the two as fast as possible cos I don't want to have it losing interest by doing a BACS transfer or Direct Debit (which they say take 4 days to clear). Sad I know but every penny counts!
So here's to free money!

Direct debit is fine. It may take 3 or 4 working days for the transaction to go through once you've initiated it but it leaves your current account and arrives in your Egg account on the same day with no loss of interest.0

Cahoot do (or did) a 5.5% savings account too.
