Anyone taken the plunge on this?

I didn't get round to it in the end. I thought applications had to be made in branch if you wanted the £100 gift card.

Having a quick look at their website, I don't think the offer is still running, although it was never well advertised online. I did have a leaflet and it was only on from mid Feb to late March from memory.

Does anyone know if the £100 gift card is still available?

For those interested, this seems to be live again but not for long. I think you can see which branches are participating somewhere on their site.

Do you have a link to the promotion?

Can't seem to find this on PO website.

TIA

^ I was emailed the above as I signed up to get updates when it was rolled out to a branch near me.

Terms clearly state open to all though, from what I can glean it is a case of filling the form out and setting the account up in person in one of the branches applicable. However others have indicated an appointment is required with a 'FA', so I am unsure exactly.

Has anyone else done this recently and can advise further?

can't find anything on their site that refers to this. Anyone got any links ? I did register at the outset but nothing received

There is an option at the bottom of the email to forward on, so if anyone would like a copy pm me.

Don't get me wrong...I believe you and it all seems legit.

But I wonder whether I'll get the incentive because I didn't receive the email...

^ It really shouldn't (and won't) make any difference.

Having read all the T&Cs, I think we'd be too late now to apply for this (unless you started the switch within the last few days):

To be eligible you must use our Current Account Switch Service and complete a switch from a non-Post Office Current Account, having fully completed and submitted a switching form between 01 July 2014 and 31 August 2014

If I went in tomorrow, opened the account and started the switch, then my earliest completion date would be 1st Sept, which means I probably wouldn't receive the gift card.

Link in post #11. However, by "participating branches" they're referring to those branches where you can open an account...not those where you can bag a joining incentive.


Probably best to call into branch and see if they've any paperwork on the offer. Even then, it's going to be tight to get things done by the end of the month?
