Hey Guys,
Two years ago I opened up an EasyCash account with Halifax, Last month, my CCJ dropped off my file and I applied for the Reward account, which I was accepted for (Hurray!).. I also had an old Barclays account which I used to switch (This account was never used).
The switch went smoothly and was completed on 1st September, then today (3rd) they deposited £100 switch incentive into my account (Another hurray!), my Q is, I thought they didnt pay out the inventive if you already held an account with them?

Anyone know if they'll take the £100 back?

On https://www.halifax.co.uk you'll see the following:
If this is your first time getting the £100 from them since Jan 2012, then you're ok.:grouphug:

The exclusion is for people who already had £100 for switching to Halifax since January 2012.0

SO I take it your easycash account was closed and you now have a reward account, or do you have both. Also, what happens to the Electron Card that comes with the EasyCash Account. Is it replaced with a debit card, can you still use the Electron Visa.0
