It’s not showing for everyone yet, but you can cheat it:

- Make sure your joint account is the active account in your app
- Go to the Help tab and search for ‘switch’.
- Then choose the ‘What is a full switch?’ help page.
- In there will be a button to begin the switch.

Just double check you selected your joint account in the app prior to clicking the link on the article. Personally i used one of Mr Cooks blogs on switching which seemed to do the trick.
