Co-operative Refer a Friend Switching Offer £125 (Nov 2022)

Comments

  • 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
    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.

    As expected, referred friends have plenty of time to complete and submit the referral form (far beyond the 14 days as stipulated in the terms and conditions).

    Our Refer a Friend Switching Offer ended on 28 February 2023
    You and your friend can still enjoy £125 each if:
    • Your friend was eligible for the offer and completed their application by 28 February 2023, and
    • Your friend fully completes a current account switch from another bank, and we receive their completed referral form by 4 April 2023.

    Did we ever get clarification on previous customers?

    I referred my wife in the previous promotion. She then switched out before the start of this one.

    So I've 'referred' her back again which went through yesterday.

    Not sure we're going to get the bonus though

    I've just had an email refusal of the bonus as a referred friend.  I already had a bonus from the last referral but had switched out the account so had no current account with co-op at the time of this current bonus.  

    Interestingly the referrer refusal email says that 'my friend' has been referred by someone else and therefore they only pay the first referral friend.  Which is a nonsense because there has only been one referral friend on both referrals and they were the same person.

    Would be interested if anyone else has had the bonus paid with the same circumstances.  I read earlier in the thread some were trying again as nothing in the T's & C's said this wasn't valid.
