Halifax Reward Account - Have I Lost the Plot?

I am 'certain' (?) that when I applied for a Halifax Rewards account in January, there was an offer on that you received a payment(I think £75) when the account was opened and all your direct debits had transferred to it from your previous account.

I'm now reaching that stage, but can't find any reference, anywhere, to this offer.

Have a finally mislaid my marbles, or does anyone else remember the same offer?

    Halifax definitely haven't had a general offer like this.

    It could have been either:

    (1) You applied in branch, and they offered you the cash bonus for switching. However, this is not mentioned on their website anywhere.
    or,
    (2) You were an existing customer, and they sent you a letter about the offer, in which case you won't find details on their website, but they will instead be on the letter.

    Blimey, I really have lost it then... neither of your scenarios applies to me, and I would swear I read about it in one of Martin's emails. Obviously I've looked back through those around the right time, and nothing's there now.......

    Off to lie in a darkened room!

    That's possible - I did apply for one of those too (busy exiting all accounts from Santander), but I thought both of the accounts I applied for had similar offers.
