Santander E-Saver
 

Anyone know how the santnader E-Saver is for stealth.

Ive read on the forum that the current accounts are good to go, but also read that some banks savers accounts dont work.

Can anyone help?

Dont really want to waste the account if a complete stealth name wont work

Cheers all

Most savings accounts cannot handle a Direct Debit Mandate, therefore it is recommended you avoid them as Paypal requires you to attach an account which can handle a Direct Debit Mandate.

I have used a number of Halifax Savings accounts with no problems :))

Really? No problems at all?:shocked:

I understood savers were a problem

Same here, shame we can only have 5.

It will only fail if paypal request money from the bank.

I Use That I Made Up To 8 E-saver

That Will Not Work With Paypal Plus In The Uk u Can Not Use Saveing Accounts Any More...:pry::pry:

How recently Bunneh?

I have one on my paypal account at the moment, But i do agree that it fails when ebay tries to take funds from it for refunds etc.. when there is money in the account, But i have 4 of these savings accounts now :)

When did you last verify a Paypal with one of the Halifax savers and did it work please

No Saver Account Work For PayPal In The Uk I Ask PayPal Thay Said That At First They Use To Work But Now Thay Dont

Thanks Gangster - that's what I thought - Shame on you Bunneh - getting an old lady all excited!!
:shocked:

No Prob GrannyT Here To Help :sly:

LOL ... i didnt know what you meant.
I added mine just over a month ago..

@Gangster878 ....wheres my rose????? I want one to :P

HeHe ...:D

I couldn't use mine - I got the 2 verifications amounts through from PP - but when I tried to put them in they didn't work. I contacted them (PP) and asked about it - they told me that they would just send the amounts again and it would work. When I got the 2 amounts and went to put them in I got a message saying the account wasn't suitable and couldn't be used again. I gave up on Santander e-acts after that.
This all happened about 6 months ago.

Hi GrannyT!

which savings accounts did you use please? :s
ISA is no good i know that for sure!

thanks

I have never used a saver account because of the problems I have read about.

I thought someone had found one that worked - but I was wrong

:mad2:

Add the savers to PP, watch your Bnk account on-line and add the micro's as soon as they land, now here is your choice as what to do but here is what i do, once i add the micro's i remove the savers and then when i need some money i use the withdraw option as normal and then you are asked to attach a bnk account, i just re-attach the savers and you are not re-asked for the DD mandate.

Every saver account i have added like this has stayed added.

Ah, that sounds like a good technqiue you are using. :pop2:

Can I just ask: do PP let you re-add an already confirmed bank with no problems?

Are you just using the saver as a £1900 limit account vs. a £650 limit account. You may have found a good way to get an extra £1000 from the life of the PP this way...

Sounds like a great technique.

Why only £1900?? Send the necessary docs in and there's no limits at all :)

Yes it is fine to re add it, well untill threads like this get read by the wrong persons

TizWoz you are a genius, thank you
Looks like all these saver accounts i have been opening arent going to waste after all.
Cant thank you enough :hail:

TizWoz has it down on the saving accounts. I have a few on some PayPal accounts of mine.

can some please try to open up a new halifax online savers account and write here ,what is the sort he/she is getting.
I am currently getting 11-67-22 . and that is a fcuking ridiculous sort code, doesnt get validated by paypal system. I have called them, they say they cannot do anythig. bulls!
the previous sort code used to be 11-18-11 which was cool.

That sounds messed up. Why are they changing the sort codes!!!

(I only have the Easycash accounts with Halifax right now. Those sort codes are ok.)

I just got a new Online Saver - it has the same sort as my real bank.

How many e savers do you have now? What sort of regular account do you have?

Do barclays e-savers work, as I have one and would like to try it out but I do not know if anyone has tried one yet.

Thanks for this TizWoz - really helpful method which I am using now. One question - I have just reattached the savers to test out a small withdrawal from PP. It looks as though all is fine as I got a confirmation that PP are withdrawing funds to my bank etc. I have also just received another email from PP asking me to confirm the bank with the 2 micros - do I ignore this??

yes ignore it, your PP is already verified.

Cool thanks. When do you usually detach the bank again? Now, or when the funds are in the bank?

After adding the micro.


All the information is in the thread, Please read it.

Tiz

I have read the thread but I'm obviously missing something, so apologies.

I followed your method and detached the savers acct after confirming initial micros, I then reattached it to withdraw. You have told me to ignore the micros as they were done in the past. So I am waiting for the funds to hit my account and I have asked you when I should detach the savers acct again - you have advised me to do it after the micros (which you told me to ignore anyway?)

Can you clear this up as I have got cross-threaded?!

Thanks

You don't detach it again.

TizWoz,

I added a Barclays E Saver and put in the deposits when they came in and then removed the bank, I later added the bank because I needed to make a ebay seller account, so when I added the E Saver it added but it says it is uncomfirmed and that deposits would need to be sent again.

Please shed some light on this!

Sorry, I realized this later. PayPal working fine for now though.
