How many bank accounts can you get?

[penfold]

So i now have 4 Halifax accounts, does anybody know the limit for these guys? regards.

I wouldn't personally go over 5 accounts. However, you can look at Bank of Scotland who are owned by Halifax, spread bank accounts across the high street.

I never go over 4 accounts with any bank myself.

Just look towards other banks

HSBC, RBS, BOS are all good

4 is about ideal for any one bank.

Go over the banks you like.

Check what is available to you to open online.

Over a slow period of time, open up more accounts.

Do not open 3 at any one time or even within the same month.

Slow and carefully works best.

Good Luck.

Ive found RBS to be Uptight about there accounts.
So i only use them if i really have to.

There security department is very fickle.

Why not more then 4 with the same bank?

Because the last thing you want or need is the Bank going through your accounts and wondering why you have so many accounts....

[penfold]

Yeah, i see what your saying.

[Imakemoney]

Yeah spread the banks around.

The last thing you would want is a CIFA on your credit report if any of the banks feel you are abusing their services...
