    I haven't so far seen anyone that says they transferred the £1,000 back to their 'real' bank and then received the £150.

    I know the T&Cs only mention paying £1k in and not leaving it there, but I just feel a bit twitchy about withdrawing it till I've got the dosh, just in case
    Me too :) I was unsure about this, and decided to leave it there until I get the incentive, to be on safe side!

    I can confirm that I received the £150 switch incentive.

    I put in £1000 and withdrew the money again on the same day via online banking.

    So all ok.

    :)

    Switch completion date 13/12/14.
    £1000 in on 23/12/14.
    £1000 out on 23-24/12/14.
    Incentive received on 13/01/15.

    Thanks for posting derrick. Looking good for me then...but I'm a month behind you as, being an existing customer, I had to wait for them to relax the T&Cs.


    Just one thing...I wouldn't risk the "with switch" £1K just in case their systems don't pick up on the relaxed T&Cs. I'd be doing the hokey cokey with it tomorrow if I was you.


    Thanks again.

    I got a hard copy from CB,(nothing from YB), re the switching incentive including "this credit can include the balance of the account you are switching but excludes internal transfers from any other account you hold with YB or CB, either in your sole name or jointly with someone else", but I think I will do the belts and braces and do a manual transfer.

    How many did you apply for?

    I haven't finished yet!


    I understand the max is 6 (although not sure if that's across both brands, but I suspect it is), and I intend to find out if it really is. :)

    I paid in my £1000 before you - and still haven't had my £150. And I am actually using it for transactions.

    If I don't get it in the next week I shall start getting annoyed!:D

    My switch was completed on 12/12 - 1k paid in 18th. So based your dates I should get the incentive within a week so.

    £150 incentive was paid into the account today.
