Wiki: Current Account Switching Incentives 💸

I opened an Ulster bank account few years back, no paperwork, all completed online.

Natwest to RBS confirmed for the 16th.

If they allow it, then I’ll try Ulster. Otherwise I think I’ve pretty much got them all now. Maybe Halifax if they launch another one?

NatWest to RBS bonus received 2 days after switch complete - so £400/£600 done so far. Ulster next!

That’s the answer we all wanted!

I got the NatWest bonus on the 27th of February but I’ve not had any accounts with any of them before this no

Doh.

Would you feel comfortable sending photocopies?

(Although I suppose that doesn’t answer photocopies of what exactly…)

Did anyone get the £200 bonus from NatWest, switched out another account to a new RBS account, and get another £200?

I’ve read them, but I’m not sure on whether or not you have to switch out the NatWest account to RBS in order to get the £200 switching bonus from RBS, if you previously received a bonus from NatWest, or if I can switch from another bank account e.g. Triodos to RBS after switching from Virgin to NatWest

RBS checks can’t be that thorough as I signed up with the wrong title.

Ah well. Luckily I’ll be gone soon and won’t be talking to them at any point.

Starting out my RBS journey and switching out my HSBC to RBS after previously switching Virgin to NatWest, wish me luck

Oh I do love me some free money!

The offer will be paid directly into your account within 3 working days of your switch completing and will appear as a cash credit

Even better! Looks like I’ll do RBS > Halifax > Ulster then.

It’s already done to be fair. New exhaust and oil change. £300 :upside_down_face: can’t moan if it gets me a few more years now.

Just opened a ThinkMoney account as Santander is taking so long to pay out.

Does anybody know if it will be possible to downgrade the Reward Account to Standard? I know of the trick with depositing money, transferring some out with Revolut etc but not sure if I want to remember to do all that every month for £5

Ah sorry my bad should have said was talking about the Halifax switching offer. Thanks:)

Lloyds didn’t flinch when I downgraded mine after receiving the bonus. Halifax likely the same.
