Santander switch incentive
I have seen the new Santander £180 switch incentive on the MSE bank page, which says You can't have had a switch bonus from Santander since September 2021.

Halifax rewards acc (& other offers coming to an end) - close the account or not?
Just curious whether you guys shut down your accounts when these offers come to an end (Halifax Rewards soon, Santander Lite Cashback recently) or whether you leave your accounts open & if so why?

Monzo has disabled my account, it's been two weeks and no updates
Over the holidays my bank account suddenly stopped working. I gather I've been flagged as suspicious, the only thing that I can think that happened is I received a significant pay out (5 figures) when my employment ended with work.

https://www.nationwide.co.uk/current-accounts/flexplus/Information: From 1 December 2024, the FlexPlus monthly fee will go up from £13 a month to £18 a month. Bad news. Was ready for and anticipating a £2/month hike but this is going to warrant some research. Might be time for me to ditch.

Chase's ridiculous ID policy
A warning to those thinking of using Chase: I've been banking with them since 2022. I locked myself out of the app - for some reason fingerprint ID didn't open and the passcode didn't work. I divorced in 2021, and haven't yet changed my passport back to my maiden name, as I don't want to waste the 4 years left on it. I…

I have a Santander Edge Current Account and get 1% cashback at supermarkets. I give my daughter £100 cash a week to help her pay her bills which she spends mainly in Asda.
