    Opportune time to ask - are the vouchers in paper form through the post or e-mailed to print off? TIA
    They are sent in an email with a random code to add to your amazon account like below:


    [FONT=&quot]Amazon Claim Code: XXXX-XXXXXX-XXXX [/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Gift Card Amount: £50.00[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Expiry Date: 12/06/2029[/FONT]

    How strange - referrer and I have received one code each from a claim on 29th May - I submitted 5, one after the other, only one voucher received so far and this was the second :huh:.

    Isn't it marvellous! Two letters from Tesco this morning dated June 7th, telling me that if they don't hear from me they will start switching my accounts, etc, etc.

    My switches complete tomorrow.
    I imagine Tesco's switching department in particular has been busier than usual - though what I found odd about my switches from Tesco is they texted me saying that as part of the closure process, they would send out 5 years of transaction history, but needed to confirm my address first.

    In other words, they were happy to send out normal statements, plus switch my entire account balance to another bank account at my address, yet told me they needed address confirmation to send out transaction history. Oddly enough, my father did a switch from Tesco the week before and received his transaction history through the post without having to confirm anything.

    People have talked about the costs of this crazy promotion being met by Santander. But it's not actually cheap on the part of the banks at the other end of his stampede!

    Nor Amazon, as i seriously doubt Santander are giving them the full £50 for each voucher sent to us switchers. There's some pretty big ticket household stuff that can be got with the full £1k value if a couple pool there's into one Amazon account.

    Tesco would have been better off keeping the higher interest rate in situ, I feel...

    Some vouchers received today, having referred someone on here.
