Just in case someone is interested (and eligible).
Apply for an eligible account between the 7th of Jan and 15th of Feb 2019.


About 2 months ago someone said it was unlikely they will offer more than £125, so I switched in November. Damn... :)

    Surely it should be 'to Natwest' not 'from Natwest'.

    The offer has been made by Natwest, i.e. is from Natwest.

    More importantly, the full switch terms are here: https://personal.natwest.com/content/dam/natwest/personal/current-accounts/documents/Jan-7th-NW-Switcher-Terms-Conditions.pdf

    Unsurprisingly, if you have previously taken part in any cashback offer to switch to NatWest (including from Royal Bank) since October 2017, you won't be eligible for this offer.

    I taken NatWest bonus on May 2018, so cannot apply again.
    However, it said " since October 2017". I doubt this is correct. Natwest only first offer bonus in April/May 2018.

    It's a verbatim quote from the Natwest website. They are free to set any date they like. They have chosen October 2017.

    But it seemed incorrect.
    From the history, NatWest start giving bonus for current account switching service in April/May 2018

    £125 -> £100 -> now is £150

    When, and what, the previous offers by Natwest were is a totally moot point. All that counts is that Natwest are saying you are not eligible for their current offer if you have taken part in any Natwest switch offer since October 2017. Time to move on. But if you can't, I would recommend you take it up with Natwest.
