Incentives to Switch Bank

  • Please be aware of any deadline when switching bank accounts.
    I switched to TSB (via MSE website) in July 2016 and was expecting the £130 bonus but it never arrived. When I complained they said 'you missed the deadline' but they did not say how I missed it. I just ticked the box to switch and assumed it would go through automatically. Surely, TSB should have completed the transaction as requested or contacted me before the deadline about it.

    Some people would complain and expect to get their £130 and some extra compensation.
