Account switching bonus minimum term

I've just got my £150 from First Direct and so was looking to do another switch but I'm worried that if I move to quickly then I might jeopardise my bonus. I can't see anything in the terms but to be honest I'm pretty poor at reading these documents and also a bit paranoid. Now I have my bonus am I free to move along or does anyone know of a minimum term or anything like that?

    We're sure you'll love our service more than anyone else's, so much so we're banking on it. If you don't enjoy what we're doing after 6 months, but within 12 months of switching, we'll not only help you move banks but give you a £100 as a leaving present.

    You must have paid at least £1,000 per month into your account for six months and not have banked with us before, as well as moved to us initially using the Current Account Switch Service.

    You must contact us before leaving in order to claim this service guarantee. You'll get the money within 28 days of the criteria being met.
