    I have switched from Halifax to RBS (have 2 current accounts with BoS so wanted an account with a different group)

    It's been ok so far

    They aren't due to pay the incentive until about 10th May, so you've got a bit of a wait to see if you've been successful. A successful switch doesn't mean the incentive will get paid.
    How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 2.60% of current retirement "pot" (as at end May 2025)

    Hi,
    I was not offered the option of switching during the application. The account was opened beginning of February and I filled out the switch online.

    Same boat. Did other folk get the option during the application? I'm guessing if I use rbs.co.uk/switch now I won't qualify.

    My switch to RBS was completed today. Went to set up digital/mobile banking and realised that I need my account number to set up both. Got out my unembossed RBS debit card - no account number. Checked online to see where I can find it and the RBS website says I can find it on my online/mobile banking or a statement (mine are digital).

    I guess I have to ring up and jump through the security loops to get it - it isn't on any of my switch emails or post.

    Mine was shown at the end of the application.

    I suspect yours would have been too.

    Not RBS, but with NatWest I originally applied fairly late in the evening, and was not offered an option to switch as part of the application process.

    I phoned NatWest the following day, and they advised me to re-apply online during office hours, which I did, and was offered the switch as part of the application process. The advisor cancelled my first application, and allowed the second one to complete. I received the bonus.
