Halifax £100 offer - does old bank need to be same address as Halifax account?

liamcov

I have an existing Halifax reward account at one address and the account I'm planning to switch from is at another address, will this cause any problems?

Erm ... I should imagine so. Why don't you ask them?

Yes. In order for the switch to proceed the details of each bank account have to be identical, otherwise it would open all sorts of fraudulent possibilities.

Why just not change the address of the current account that you are switching as this will be closed anyway?

Thanks.

I've just emailed them but I was just asking in case they don't action it in time (my Halifax appt is on Friday).
