Offer £250 to switch to Clydesdale, Yorkshire or B

carly

I have been refused the switching bonus because the Direct Debits I set up both went to my Tesco Bank accounts . ( internet saver and instant access account ). B are saying that the two DDs have to be paid to separate and distinct companies and that mine weren't. I cannot see any such rule in their T and Cs. There is no argument that I have not met the other criteria . Has anyone else found themselves in this position ? I'm prepared to argue my case with B unless I've missed something obvious and other board members can point out my error. Any advice ?Thanks

Moan + complain and ask for compensation. I have got my £250 bonus a few weeks ago. I switched to YB (it was not a B account) with 2 tesco dds.

Good luck.

Over the phone I was informed I am not now entitled to this offer as I have a previously received a switching offer of £150 with Yorkshire BS before. I certainly do not recall this at all and I don't think I've ever had a current account with Yorkshire before.

How about Clydesdale Bank? Did you receive a £150 incentive from them 3 years ago?

After bagging £500 I've switched to Natwest and wifey to Halifax..£700 in the bag. May stick around with these for a while, use the Natwest as a small spend account and cycle £750 through Halifax to earn the £3/month on its way to Tesco to earn 3% on 3x £3K in their accounts. All good fun.

Oh no. I hope this isn't their stance. Have done exactly the same with two Tesco DDs and was hoping to see my £250 by next week. Fingers crossed they will still honour because as you say it doesn't say anything in the T&Cs about it.

Should be okay as long as the payments are showing as going to separate Tesco account numbers. Sounds like somebody at B is giving wrong advice as that requirement isn't in any T&Cs I've seen.
