    I had quite a bit of hassle setting up 3 BOS vantage accounts last month and this has peeved me off quite a bit now because I moved a lot of money out of my ISA. I only have like 4 DDs and my main account is a Santander 123 account. Oh well, it was quite a big loophole and was bound to end sooner or later.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    There's an easy work around, just have a look around the forum threads.

    "It" never was a loophole of any sort ever. "It" will not end with needing a couple of DDs a month, as these are easy to get hold of (see forum). "It" just needs a bit of initiative, and perhaps a bit of thinking outside the box.

    Having 3 BOS accounts with vantage, this will mean setting up another 6 DDs.

    Not for me I' m afraid, my accounting system is running out of space with the number of DDs it has recorded, to meet various banks t&cs.

    Whilst it has been good whilst it lasted it is goodbye BOS from September.

    I wonder how long before other banks follow the BOS route?

    M&S Monthly Saver eligibility now requires a CA Switch to have taken place into an M&S CA and at least 2 active DD including for existing Monthly Saver customers intending to open another Monthly Saver who previously didnt need the DD's.
