    I’ve read the t&c and can’t see anything to say it’s not allowed in order to receive the incentive, but has anyone else applied for this switch but from a Lloyds account?   

    TSB has long been divorced from Lloyds.
    Thank you. Showing my age then!
  • Sorry to ask again, but did anyone find they could arrange the switch immediately and at the same time as they opened the new account…or did you have to wait to receive some kind of authorisation code in the post?

    Thanks.
  • I still haven’t received my activation code. Account opened on 4th oct 
  • And therefore can’t start the switch yet either…

    No you can’t. Tsb say you can but that page is frozen dead as per tsb usual stuff.
    You need to wait for your activation code sent in the post, mine took 6 days from account opening then log in ID, password then activation code, then compose memorable info and answers to three self selected security questions. Even though tsb claim to amalgamate this account with any others if held, in due course. Still that’s tsb faff. 

    Then yes you can select current accounts in the list and choose switching to tsb which then takes you to the company form for switches and yet more info to fill in before it offers you a switch date in seven working days (I think). Good news is I just did all this and nothing went wrong which is unusual with tsb! 😊 

    Got debit card after three days but haven’t received PIN yet day 6 after opening account.

    I initiated my switch at the time of opening. So maybe the usual issues with TSB's hite tech... 
    eta clarity
  • I still haven’t received my activation code. Account opened on 4th oct 
    I also opened my account on the 4th and I received the activation code yesterday (11th).
  • I have just tried to open an account all good until i get to the page where they are supposed to be deciding if i can have an account then i first got a page to set up user id and password then it went to a error screen so tried again same problem,anyone else had this issue.please.

    Did you go through the affiliate link to start the switch process, the same as when opening the account.
    Or just the normal tsb website?

    Still waiting for my activation code, I opened mine on the 4th. In fact the only thing I’ve received is the debit card. Annoying as the switch completes tomorrow. Luckily it’s only a donor account that’s switching with minimal in the account.
