    I applied last week, got 'our team need to think about this application'. Today I received three identical letters with my authorisation code.

    I notice the deal has now been pulled. Am I still eligible?

    If your application is in the 'pipeline' then you are fine

    I haven't received my authorisation code- yet- (sent out Thursday last week) so phoned to check today. They offered to send a new code, but better wait until tomorrow and if necc order another then.
    Panic not

    Like an idiot I waited until after pay day to switch and now they've pulled the deal. I guess I'm doing TSB instead now.

    I also got 3 identical letters with my authentication code.
    I tried to enter it but after retrieving my application details just got a message saying the team are looking at my application and still need a few more days!

    I went on online chat to CB but didn't get a straight answer and couldn't get through on the phone.

    I started my application last week when the £250 offer was running. Had to wait for code in the post to complete application which arrived and was entered today, including entering details of account to switch. It was at this point I guess the application was 'completed'. I received confirmation emails but no mention of the switching bonus.

    Anyone in same boat and knows whether or not I'll get it?!

    Thanks

    I had the criteria for the bonus email a couple of days later so don't worry.

    For future reference, using the switching service allows you to choose the date in the future for the switch to start, to suit your circumstances.

    Annoying that they pulled the deal, I am waiting for a call back from them as they don't have my address in their postcode search and have no way to enter it manually. Called Saturday and they said they would call me back on Friday... :(

    Applied for B Account on 26th. Nearly a week later still getting this:
    The team at B need to go over your application in more detail. We’ll do this within two working days then send you an email or text to log in and see our decision.

    Presumably they are just working their way through hundreds of applications? I still don't even know if they will honour the £250 switch offer, but I sure hope so as I applied before the offer was pulled.

    Apologies if this is a daft question, but when setting up the DDs on my B account, what is the correct information to give to my utility providers? Do I write "Clydesdale Bank" as the name of the bank, or "B", or.... ?
