I might be weird but I LOVE doing household admin and accounting. Thanks to you I know have curve and chase and learning loads :)

HI Andy, love your videos. I struggle to learn by just listening and get confused. Would be great to see on screen examples or step by step guides on how to do some of these tips and tricks!

Happy Easter 🐣 thanks for ur hard work.

Thanks for the great content and advice. Are there any other apps like Plum/Moneybox which could be used as a DD to save? Unfortunately my bank is not on the list of banks accepted for a DD with Plum - thanks

Hi Andy! I’ve been binge watching all your videos recently to try and organise myself a bit more. I still have the current account I opened when I was 16, which from what I gather from your videos is a good thing for my credit report. I want to open more accounts but my mortgage is due for renewal in the next 6 months. Am I safe to open an account with a bank that does a soft check like Monza, Starling or Chase? Or if that isn’t an option could I open another account with my existing bank? Thanks for your videos and keep up the good work 🙂

Great video Andy. Very comprehensive and informative. Do you have a sample excel sheet that you manage the flow / working of these accounts and all the standing orders and debits?

Thank you, Andy. That was BRILLIANT. I already do a lot of this but you have given me some additional ideas. THANK YOU again. One small point. At 6mins 57 secs you said "Standing Order". I think that was meant to be "Direct Debit"? Best wishes.

Ah, thanks Peter - yes good spot!

for direct debits : cancer research society, scottish friendly, moneybox for monthly Lisa contributions, multiple credit cards..many can be as low as £5

Just wondering, what if the direct debit is listed on the bank account but it has not been charged yet. Does it need to have gone out of the account at these once for it to count? Or can I cancel it before it is taken?

Small direct debits is a good website for this actually

I have money in a monzo account but then came across a group on Instagram which I searched on Facebook called “monzo Stole our money”. Have you looked into this? It seems monzo are randomly shutting accounts - some with lots of money in - and holding onto the money for long periods of time. Currently trying to get my money out and shut my account and transfer back into a high street bank.

Could you do a full video on payroll giving. Thanks

Question for every one here. What has been the most money you acquired in a year, using switching and/or transferring money for rewards?

What’s the difference between standing order and direct debit also how do I set up direct debit or does it happen automatically

@BeCleverWithYourCash

3 жыл бұрын

Hey Zaim. A standing order is a transfer you set up from your current account to another bank account. It’s for the same amount each time and can be to another of your own accounts, or one belonging to another person or business. A direct debit is one you set up with a business for a regular payment, but the amount can change each time.

@kristjanprendi3087

@@BeCleverWithYourCash so a standing order into your saving account in the same bank, wouldn’t count as a direct debit right?

So you essentially just make sure you meet the monthly criteria for the accounts to reap the rewards? Cool.

Yep! As I say you should really keep an eye on the accounts to be sure everything as it should be, but it'll take a few minutes each month after the initial set up

Hi Malik. I think you're saying you closed your account but subsequently had someone paid money to that account? I'd contact the bank and ask them if they are holding the money or if they rejected the payment.

Now that Ebay don't use PayPal anymore, does that still count as a direct debit when Ebay charge your account?

If your eBay as moved on from PayPal, then it won’t take money as a direct debit from your current account. So you’ll need to set up another payment via PayPal

@BeCleverWithYourCash

So what you need to do here is set the Amex direct debit for later in the month. This allows you time at the start of the month to use the debit card to clear £500. The direct debit will then take the rest you owe to clear the balance.

Do credit cards count as direct debits? And with the “endless cycle” is there any risk of it being flagged as money laundering by the banks?

I think these podcasts are to fast. Hard to take it all in despite it being valuable information.

Too complicated 😩😩😩

When you open a bank account you have to agree to the Ts and Cs of the bank account. Most banks require that, when you open a current account with them that you agree that you will close all other current accounts within a defined period (3 months for example). You are encouraging people to commit fraud against multiple banks .
