    That is odd and sounds like a glitch (technical term;))

    Understandably, they are busy but their phone lines are open 24/7. Maybe try again later this evening?

    "Make sure you're eligible

    Are all these statements true about you?
    You are 18 years of age or over.
    You do not have more than one current account with Tesco Bank already.

    Yes

    No"

    The correct answer is Yes (assuming you don't already have more than one current account:cool:)

    but see Hasbeen's post above. Could it be the same for you?

    Looks like you'll have to bite the bullet & phone.

    Similar thing apparently . Finally got through with a number where the man on the other end put me through free. Good job too as I was ages again getting through. Already wasted over £5 . She was very sorry etc but very sorry doesn t give me the money back does it . Opened one now so thanks to all who replied to me.
