  • I sent a message at 2am with the 4 hour reply quote but still no reply now after 8 hours..
  • I'm really cross about this. After I opened a new account as an existing customer and transferred the money. I checked in branch and they said all was good. Phoned last week to check I'd done everything correctly. She said she couldn't see any reason why I wouldn't get the bonus. Not had anything paid out etc. So phoned this morning to find that I'm not on the switch scheme. I'm so angry about being told I'd done everything correctly and now being told I haven't. 
  • The agent said I'm not the only one that has phoned about this and not the only one putting a complaint in. 
  • I'm not eligible now apparently due to a switch in 2019 but always been told I am eligible so they've put me through to the dedicated complaints team on chat...

  • Just got told the same thing - what a joke
  • How annoying, you speaking to the complaints department? I'm going to see it through as been told so many times I'm eligible...
  • I've been passed to them on live chat, not holding much hope due to the condition but they should be better at telling people earlier that they are not eligible, they shouldn't be stringing folk along like that.
  • Exactly and I've double checked a few times where I've been told I'll get it even yesterday being told by 11.59pm!!
  • Mine says I've been passed to the complaints department and awaiting reply within 3hours..

    Did you do a switch and get the incentive with NatWest back in 2019? 

    If you did, to be fair, they did inform you back when you applied for the account in the incentive for switching T&C’s that you wouldn’t be eligible for the switch incentive if you had already received an incentive since end of 2017…
