Yorkshire bank £150

Hi,

I did the £150 switch and go my bonus today. Is there anything stopping me from closing the account? Or can I just close instantly

Thanks
James

    I'm also doing the switch, waiting for the money to arrive.

    As far as I remember there is nothing stopping you closing the account, but why not keep it open and use it to switch to some one else when the deals start again?

    If there is no monthly fee for the account, and no monthly funding requirement, just keep it open with minimum balance and use as switching fodder in the future. You can always close it down the line if no switch offers which suit you arise.

    Hi all, don't suppose anyone knows the terms for this as I have searched but can only find old versions for previous switch offers.

    I did this switch and paid in my deposit by 31st March - should I have the bonus by now?

    This thread was all about the version of the offer ending 31 March, which is presumably the one you signed up for?

    Thanks very much, looks like mine is a little late arriving...
