    I've just got mine as well. Switched an account without any active direct debits into an existing Santander lite account with quite a few. 
    What date did you instruct the switch?

    So far it seems switches instructed w/c Monday 13th September being paid today, hopefully people will post the dates they instructed etc. as well as saying they've got the £130, so we can see if a payment pattern emerges... 
    think you may be right as I requested my switch at point of applying for the account, so that too was on 13 September. 
    MFW#105 - 2015 Overpaid £8095 / 2016 Overpaid £6983.24 / 2017 Overpaid £3583.12 / 2018 Overpaid £2583.12 / 2019 Overpaid £2583.12 / 2020 Overpaid £2583.12/ 2021 overpaid £1506.82 /2022 Overpaid £2975.28 / 2023 Overpaid £2677.30 / 2024 Overpaid £2173.61 Total OP since mortgage started in 2015 = £37,286.86 2025 MFW target £1700, payments to date at April 2025 - £1712.07..
