Bank accounts with incentives?

Hi there

I opened a First Direct account, about 4 months ago, in order to grab the £50 joining incentive which I got. Are there any other banks offering these incentives? I can't apply to Lloyds TSB as I have been with them for 10 years.

If I do find another bank with an incentive, how long to you think I should leave it until I apply baring in mind that I set up the First Direct account recently?

Any advice is greatly accepted!

    Alliance & Leicester is the best one as you get a 12 month 0% overdraft as well. I think Smile also have an incentive of maybe £25. I think you can do A & L through rpoints and get another £25 or so.
