    Business account pays 5.38% AER

    http://www.totalbusinessaccount.co.uk/

    What does the panel think?

    I know you need to keep a min balance of £10K, but that fook all to proper IT Contractors.

    Sounds like they are desperate for money, hence prepared to pay higher than usual interest rates...

      I see no one cares about getting such a good rate on their business account.

      So much for my 10% commission on every sale....

              Each transaction costs 30p.

              So if you do a 20 a year it will cost you £6 a year.

              If you have an average balance of say £50K, you wil receive about £2500 a year for nothing.

                minus your 10%

                mind you, my average balance is closer to 10k
                one of us is doing something wrong, I hope its not me

                    That is not a day-to-day business bank account:

                    The minimum withdrawal amount is £1,000.

                    To make a withdrawal simply complete a withdrawal request form and return to our registered Head Office.
                    You can also choose to have a cheque sent to your registered address, or we can send an electronic transfer to another bank or building society account in the same name as the Business Reserve account. Cheque withdrawals can only be made payable to the Business Name.

                    If you need funds more quickly, then provided we receive your instructions by 1pm, we can arrange a CHAPS transfer. You can transfer any amount up to the credit balance of your Account and a charge of £35 will be made for this service.


                    Carp compared to the Bank of Scotland, with full internet banking facilities.
