    Anyone tried signing up who has had an account previously but closed it? I’ve tried but in final stages of sign up process where you enter personal details it comes up with the error message that my NI number entered has already been used.

    Have to get them to manually open the account for you if you have previously had one (and seems they effectively reopen the closed one). And not eligible for the £50 cashback.

    Anyone else had to have their details verified manually? Been several days now.

    Not sure I'm going to get my funds in in time if they don't hurry up.

    How long does it take for funds to reach them?

    I opened two accounts on Friday and the funds were received today (i.e. two working days)

    Strange... they verified my details manually: I sent them a pdf of a recent bank statement and they got it done within a couple of hours. I think you should chase them on this.

    Created the account and send them the manual verification bank statement in the evening. Verification was completed around noon the next day.

    They haven't asked me to send them anything. Will chase them.

    I got my 'congratulations, your money is being invested' email confirmation today. Await the £50 gift landing sometime in July.

    Up to another 5 days before the £100 is actually invested. Plan to withdraw the investment funds after the lock in period expires.

    Thanks to the OP for the heads up.

  • Thanks for the heads up Karlie88.

    Busylizzie - I applied last week, had some bother getting my bank account verified but hoping to make it before the bonus period ends.

    Opened and funded right now.

    Hopefully not too late for the £50.

    The terms say 'opened and funded' is this different to 'received and invested'?

    I.e. I've just received an email to say :

    Congratulations, we've received your money. We will now invest your money, which usually takes up to 5 working days. You can view the status of your investments at any time by visiting your account:
