    I've received my £125 today (11 days after switch day). Not got the Uber Eats offer yet.

    Uber Eats offer arrived today (14 days after switch day). Added it to my Uber Eats account without any problems.

    7 days after my balance was transferred in I got my £125, on the 13th May. I've still not seen my £20 Uber eats voucher, which is  supposed to come 20 days after the switch completes. So looking out for it by the 26th hopefully.

    Nice to save.

    In the offer terms and conditions there's contact details for the marketing agency running the Uber Eats offer for HSBC if you've still not received it.

    If you have any queries regarding your Uber Eats Voucher or this redemption process, you can contact The Marketing Lounge Partnership support team on behalf of HSBC UK by telephone on 01565 831126
    I didn't have access to the .pdf when I replied previously, so have copied the contact details above.

    The £1800 a month requirement is just making it "middle class" exclusive especially when I have an incone of around £1300 pm and HSBC are more than happy to allow me to have a credit card, just not a current account with more perks.

    It's for people who have said that their income is >£1800 on all applications for credit.
    So middle class and fraudsters...

    HSBC does not require that you have a monthly income of £1,800 (or £1,750, actually). They merely state that, in order to be eligible for their Advance account, you need to pay in a minimum of £1,750 a month, or £10,500 over 6 months. You can easily achieve this by cycling money between your HSBC and a current account held elsewhere.

    Although you're right about their published criteria, I'm sure you'll have seen many of the posts on here from rejected applicants who are unable to declare an income over that threshold - that's not to say that it's as simple as definitely needing a demonstrable source of income above that level, but anecdotally it certainly seems that low income applicants are frequently declined, even if they're technically eligible according to what HSBC's public position is....
