Re: Extra TSB classic accounts

I had similar experiences with all but one of the four applications I made so nothing to worry about. One CSA asked if one account was for a business account but when I said no, it was back to the standard protocol regarding checking details

Re: Extra TSB classic accounts

I'll assume this trick probably works without reporting back publicly. I won't be offended if a mod removes my post ;)

Re: Extra TSB classic accounts

Haha, excellent banter all. I respectfully withdraw my premature frugal comment. It turns out I've opened 4 accounts relatively easily.

Re: Extra TSB classic accounts

I've opened all of the Classic accounts I aimed for. I'll now generate some activity on all of them (cash withdrawal, spending, contactless and cheque).

Sounds promising. I have just applied for the 4th Classic account. The first three are showing on my online banking and I've funded them with a nominal amount. I then plan to wait until I have debit cards for all accounts so that I can generate some initial activity on each account. Feel free to add...

I only say this because any HBOS account is easy and quick to open once you have accounts with them (as I'm finding out, TSB accounts are relatively quick to generate too). However, as YB points out the risk is always there that any benefit...
