  • You can downgrade online or in the app. Takes seconds.

    Brilliant, just found it myself (by clicking "upgrade" haha). Downgraded to the fee-free account. Need to inspect the T&C's but don't think I'll need to pay anything in. Might stick a single DD on there just to keep it ticking.

    Switch date was yesterday. Reward landed this morning.
    Does anyone know if it's possible to downgrade the account or do you need to close it and reopen another account?
    I have no intentions of using this account but I normally like to keep my switch bonus account open so I can shift it to the next deal (if it ever comes along).
    This question has been answered a few times on this thread...but yes, you can downgrade this account online.

    The reward tracker seems a little behind. I've paid in the £1500...used debit card for premium bond purchase. So far is says I'm not in line for the £5....

    I know, my point was Post Office, NS&I or whoever it may be, Halfax know exactly where it was "spent."  
    They don't need to come looking at forums to find out.
    Mellow out and calm yourself down lad,  If I'm wrong then great we can all continue to use NS&I direct saver and the PO till the cows come home.

    Just got our (OH's) switch bonus... day before switch is due. Y, I know that's what should happen.... but was slipping re other posts.
    After the switch completes we plan to immediately downgrade it from Ultimate Reward to a fee free ac. Or switch it out if that's rejected.

    The Halifax text messages are a bit behind  :o  I've received a text just now saying that my switch is on track and they've paid the £100 today.

    My switch actually completed last Friday and I was paid the £100 the same day. I've checked but alas they haven't paid me another £100  :(
