Using the same bank to switch for bonuses

Couple months ago I created a Santander Current account purely just to switch to First Direct and get the £150 bonus.
I'm interested in switching to Halifax for their £100 bonus. I tried to make a HSBC and there seems to be problems and taking a while (not sure why as my FD and M&S account was created very quick and easy).
So I was thinking, as creating the Santander account was pretty quick, could I create another Santander acc just to switch from them again? Would there be any problems creating it as I've left recently?

Many people do this and stick with one bank to create temporary accounts, you'll be fine0
