    Open an account each and recommend each other. The you get £400 not £300



    Don't trust MSE info, it's not always correct. Best to check with the bank and if it doesn't say you need to switch then guess what! You do need to switch to get the £100 each though.

    Can you recommend a friend retrospectively after they opened an account ?

    The country doesn't need another Bank (Building Society) to bail out!

    How would this be possible? Once I've opened a account and recommended my wife surely she can't then recommend me.

    What do the T&Cs say?
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    It's a bit early for pantomime surely.

    I opened a Santander Everyday Current account and BOS Classic Vantage account over the weekend and they are both up and running on online banking. Yet to receiving my cards though.
