Why you should compare current accounts
Current accounts are what most people generally use for their day-to-day banking, so finding the right account is important. If you compare current accounts with MoneySuperMarket, you’ll be able to see what each provider offers, from their overdraft facilities and charges to their customer rating and ways you can access your account.
When you’ve chosen which account you want to open, you can switch over easily with the Current Account Switch Service – which guarantees that the switching process will be finished within seven working days. It also includes transferring your incoming and outgoing payments automatically, including standing orders, direct, debits, and your wage or salary.
It will all be handled by the bank or building society you’re moving to, so if there are any problems they’ll be taken care of. This includes any penalty charges involved in the switch process, as well as redirecting payments that still go to your old account – however this only applies for the first 36 months you’re with the new provider.
