    I wouldn't bother its only a matter of time before all the other business accounts start offering something similar, they all follow each other like sheep. If one of them gets a good idea the rest will follow.

    And money transfers from RBS are instantenous and equivilent to free CHAPS?
    No, its £20 and if you want to recieve one you have to pay a transaction fee for that too.

    Northern Rock pays 5.48% AER. No transaction charges AFAIK.
    You takes your chances...
    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.

    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

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