Hi Kevin - I don't think AA will allow me to make the first deposit by me using
the phone to get my bank to do the transfer, as they ask for the first deposit
to be made by cheque--all part of their identity check process I understand.
But at least sending a cheque will get the account open and running -

Hi Andy.
I would have thought your bank would allow you to make the transfer by
telephone while you wait for a card reader. Having said that, as previously
stated, you won't need a card reader if you log in to your AA account and click
on the make a deposit or regular deposit options. The only issue is that the
dd set up can take up to 10 days for the first time and so if you need to
transfer more quickly, you'll need to get your bank to do the transfer.
Regards.

Hi Kevin -
That sounds good. When I was talking to my bank, I asked about transferring
money out in to a savings account, and they said I needed a card reader to do
this. Looking on the AA savings site, they seem to be saying that all that is
needed is to give them my bank's sort code and account number, and they will be
able to debit my bank account for the amount I wish to transfer.
Perhaps I got somebody at the bank that didn't quite understand, or know
their stuff!
On the subject of card readers, when I set up online banking, there wasn't
an option to request a talking card reader. I checked the box requesting a card
reader, hoping that I would then get the option of a standard or accessible
one, but no such luck. I rang the bank about this, and they said because I had
made the request online for a reader, I'd have to leave it a couple of days,
and ring back to request a talking one. Wasn't too impressed with that, as I
wish to make this transfer pretty quickly -

Hi Andy.
You won't need a card reader to use your AA account. When you've logged
into the AA account you'll be able to deposit funds into your account by direct
debit from your current account or send funds from your AA account to your
current account. It's a really easy site to use and it's won awards in the
past for it's simplicity and ease of use.
Regards.

Hi all - thanks for the info. The AA have a savings account that they
link to existing bank accounts.
Anybody know if I'd need one of these card reader machines in order to
make deposits and withdrawals?
The AA savings website does ask that applicants have a current account
that accept the direct debit system, so I'm wondering if it might be that I
just tell the AA website how much I want to deposit or withdraw, and they do
the rest via DD.
Thanks for any clarification -
Andy

Hi Andy
Contact your bank, they should have a talking version of the card
reader. I am with Ulster Bank (Part of RBS) and they gave me a talking one
which is fully accessible.

Hi all -
First time this has mattered to me, but I sede that some banks when
doing online transactions, require the use of a card machine for a debit card,
which when inserted puts up an 8 digit code on screen, that has to be typed in
to a box on the webpage. On the face of it, not accessible, but I seem to
recall that some listers on here had worked out, probably with their bank, a
work around for this. I was looking at Tesco online bank, and it requires this
method for banking, so would appreciate hearing of how users have got around
this problem
Thanks -
Andy
