Switching Bank Accounts (joint vs single plus cashback deals)

Hi

I've had a loan going with HSBC for 5 years which runs out this month. (I will get 25% interest back once it ends so have stuck with them)
So that now means I can switch my bank account to take advantage of some of these incentives being offered.

For instance the co-op offering £200 or Halifax offering £5 a month.


Now then, are me and my partner able to both switch to individual accounts and each receive the £200? Or would they limit something like this to one per household. We are not married, but have a joint mortgage etc.

If we can't do it seperately, I might just set up a joint account as there seems little point in keeping them seperate unless we can both get the cash incentive.

I'll try to find their terms & conditions but just thought i'd ask here in case someone else has already found out.
