    Does the £1,500 have to be in one go or would 3 x £500 deposits do?

    Wording of switch offer is ambiguous.
  • It's always a total credit for any of these offers, so anything between a single £1500 pay in, or 1500 of £1 each.

    Hello everyone, switching novice here!
    I set up a basic Co-Op cashminder account as a switching 'burner' within the last two months, but their online banking service is terrible for me as I still do not have access to it. The account is confirmed open, but I do not have any money in it or any active direct debits. 

    I gather I do not need any active direct debits outgoing, but do I need to have a balance in the account for the CASS switch? When completing the switch am I going to need information where I need access to their online banking system to source it, such as IBANS for example?

    If it is just Sort Code and account number I'm good to go. 
    IN short:
    1) Do I need to have a balance in the account to action the switch
    2) Do I need details beyond my Sort Code and Account number for the switch?

    Thank you!

    No and no, but might need your debit card number. Only one sure way to find out.

    Hello again, how long did it take for new RBS applicants to get their digidocs email? I've had two hard searches on my credit report over this £100 and really hope they don't then say no!

    Hi everyone, just wanted to point out DigiDocs seems to be working smoothly, in case any of you are still struggling.

    All my documents were taken easily, I went for the drivers license option. All together it took about 6 minutes to process.
  • Has anyone received the switching incentive of £100 from RBS. It has been a month since I switched, but I am still waiting to receive the £100.  :/

    T&Cs says some time in 1/21 I think. Have you paid in the £1500 yet?

    Yes, I have paid in £1500.
    Lloyds also had similar conditions but they paid much quicker (within a week).
