    Shame they don't use Cineworld Anymore 

    I agree. We had one that opened last year in the City. Love the 4DX Screen.  However we also have Vue and they have replaced the standard seating with recliners.

    Will probably choose the Roktuen Film vouchers etc 

    on the T&C it says 
    • Use the ‘Current Account Switch Service’ to transfer all the active credits and debits from the bank account that you hold with another bank and close your old account with the other bank.
    Dose that mean I need a dd for the £100 Or just use the switch service?
    That's a bit confusing so if need direct debits will switch some over to other account

    Update 

    Applied for Club Lloyds

    Now gotta wait to see if they accept my application as needed ID Due to CIFAS Protection 
    Never been declined before so all good should hear from them tomz or Sunday

    We have one single CLCA and one joint CLCA. To get £100 switching bonus x 2 what is the easiest method? To change the joint account to a sole account I would imagine it would need both of us attending a branch (not desirable). Would I be permitted to open a new sole CLCA online whilst already having a joint CLCA?
    Not in my experience!  I currently have one joint CLCA and wanted to open a new single one.  Online won't let you - neither on the website or the app, certainly not whilst you're logged in anyway.  Club is simply not there in the additional accounts list. There is, in a small box on the page, the message that 'opening an additional club account requires a visit to branch'.

    On querying this on chat I was told I could ring to open a club account.  
    On ringing I was taken through their automated systems and told, by an automated system, that they 'can't take my call today' and was promptly hung up on.

    On querying this in app I was told that yes, it is bizarre that you can't open a second club online, even if you're entitled to another, and yes, the phones are apt to hang up on you.

    On asking could they get someone to ring me to save me wasting time talking to robots that hang up I was told no.
    So, it's either branch or try, yet again, on the phone. 

    The robot on the phone advises that opening an account that way might take 30 minutes - if they don't hang up.
    Thanks a bunch Lloyds!

    I have instead, opened a classic account online - within seconds, not the 30 minutes estimated for the phone, and will, next week, ring to see if that can be upgraded to club, which I hope will not take 30 minutes.

    Unless they hang up.  
    When you have it open you'll maybe find you're able to upgrade a classic to a club.

    I have four Club card accounts and I was able to open up another one online yesterday.  We like the cinema tickets.
    How?  Did you apply with or without being logged in?

    I'm sure I was requested to log on and then applied for the new account. I received notification yesterday the switch was now in progress.

    When logged in, with a Club account already showing, there is, for me at least, no option for opening a Club account - as I said above it's not in the list offered.  And on that page it states quite clearly that second Club account can't be opened online.  
    Now I have a spare Classic account, if I go to change account type, the same thing happens, Club account is not in the list offered. 
    So if you were logged in the site is behaving very differently for you!

    Club card accounts? What are those?

    As an existing Club Lloyds account holder, I can apply for a Classic, a Platinum or a Student account.
