You just need to apply for the account and request a switch before the 28th. You have 14 days to submit the referral form after that. 

Is this confirmed?
I've set up an account, but the switch date hasn't been confirmed yet.

I need the "switch end date" for the referral form. Should I complete the referral form before the 28th Feb using the switching date I was given when setting up the account next week? Or wait until after 28th Feb until I have a confirmed "switch end date"?
And does it matter? 

You can call them (probably wait 30 min) to get through. Or wait for the paperwork.

it does give you a switch date during the online application but it’s a sort of ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ deal.

You can fill the form out whoever you get the switch date, despite what it says

My switch took place today.  The T&C of the offer says the £125 will be paid within 60 days, but what has been the typical time-span, folk here have experienced, please?

Same as Ed-1

i.e. Next working day 

That was in December 2022

It's in the ts and cs that you'll have 14 days to fill in the referral form after the offer is withdrawn so you're safe.

But you can fill in the referral form now with your provisional switch completion date. If it changes then you can resubmit the form with the actual switch date. This is what others have done and successfully received the bonus.

Thank you for the info.  My £125 shows as 'Credit' in my new Co-Op today, too.

Can anyone help, if my switch is due to complete in 16 days, does this mean i can't get the referral bonus?

Also, if you apply for an account today but it isn't approved for a couple of days, does this mean you miss out?

Is tonight the deadline to open a new account and switch?

You need to get your application in today.

The website now says the promotion 'ended on' - does anybody know if this means accounts had to be opened before 28th Feb? I can't see a clear answer in the T&Cs.

I checked this afternoon and the offer was still open so it included today, looks like they closed it in the last hour or two.
