TSB refer a friend

I thought I'd post on here and see if anyone can help me if they have experience in the matter.

I currently have a TSB current account and was wondering if TSB will buy it if I close my account and then someone refers me as part of their refer a friend switch bonus scheme.

The TSB T&Cs say you can't have a current account at the time of the referral, but they don't say you must never have had an account or not since a specific date, like the First Direct and HSBC switch bonus T&Cs do respectively. So technically you should be allowed the switch bonus. But if other's have tried this before and failed because TSB think you are playing the system, then it would save me closing my account for nothing.

I thought I'd post here and see anyway.

    I transferred my account out, opened a new account the following day, switched in and received first ever TSB RAF bonus. :cool:
