I did the same, switch due to complete on the 17th. Not had a single text from Lloyd's yet.Tight_Fist said:I completed the switch form whilst logged in on my PC. Closing an old BoS account. Switch is due to complete on 15th and have had text messages to say it is going through but I just wanted to check if others completed the switch without using the link on Lloyds home page (for the £125 incentive) and still got the £125?
I'd tried using the link without logging in first on several occasions but it kept failing to go through.
I'm hoping it shouldn't make a difference as long as you meet the T's & C's which i have.
Thanks
However Virgin Money have sent a message about the switch so I know it is happening. Will find out next week.1 -
I was pleasantly surprised to see the "Incentive" credited to my Club Lloyds account yesterday. The switch of a Starling account is due to complete on the 14th.Not heard a dicky bird from them. Pun intended!1

Quick question for anyone that got the incentive paid in.
Did you have to transfer £1500 in for it to be paid.
If not, I'm assuming you could just move bank again to take up another offer?0 -
The £1500 pay in is not a requirement of the switch offer but is instead only required to waive the £3 monthly fee for the CL account. Once the incentive is paid there is no requirement to keep the CL account - you are free to downgrade to the fee-free Classic account or switch away to another bank at your leisure.PMcG86 said:Quick question for anyone that got the incentive paid in.

I got the £125 a few days ago and I got a text saying the switch was completed today. I didn't have any money in the account when I got the £125 bonus.PMcG86 said:Quick question for anyone that got the incentive paid in.

Also got incentive already, before the date of my switch. Happy

As others have written. "Incentive" paid before switch. No £1500 requirement and it completed yesterday, 14th, and s.m.s. received to confirm. No problems at all.All I received from the "losing" bank was a link to download the closing statement.0

Thanks for the messages about the £1500 deposit query.
Got a text that my Ulster Bank incentive should be paid by 24th. As soon as that clears I'll move to Lloyds.
Should have a nice sum of £275 within a week of eachother 🎉0 -

This will provide reassurance to many MSErs (like me) thinking of switching in such circumstancesHello,I had previously switched a donor account to Lloyds Club Current Account in October 2019, qualifying for the £125 switch offer at that time. I have kept that same Club Lloyds account open since then, and applied on 1 June 2022 to switch an existing NW donor account into the existing Club Lloyds account. I set a switch date of 17 June 2022, due to some direct debits scheduled for 13-15th of the month.I received a text acknowledgement from Lloyds Bank on the date that I applied, then a follow up confirmation message about the switch completion date 7 days ago (9 June 2022).The switch is due to complete tomorrow, and the £125 switcher incentive was paid into the Club Lloyds account this afternoon, one day prior to switch.1 -
My switch completed but no incentive so I'll be calling them tomorrow!Asghar said:
