I think you can’t have a savings account unless you have a current account so yes, you have to get the current account first, then open a savings account.Are the two accounts attached, as in when you apply for opening one, it opens the other along with it? Or is it three accounts?
I began opening an account with them, but let it expire when someone said you only get interest on the extra account and the only way to put money in that account was using the roundup option.
"Saving for a new car, house, or special occasion? Bank with us and you can open a Chase saver account – you’ll earn 1.5% AER (1.49% gross) variable interest daily, and we’ll pay it monthly.
With instant access to your money, no minimum opening balance, and no fees from us to worry about, saving just got even more interesting".
