    Check the T&C, section 'You are not eligible for the offer if'

    Hi @theonenonly ... if you go this page https://www.halifax.co.uk/bankaccounts.html you will find "£175 switching offer Terms and Conditions" half way down 🐱‍👤

    Me and the wife have a couple of unused TSB accounts and we have a JIONT Halifax reward account. The fact that you can get £175 for switching a dormant account to an existing account is a no brainer so I will do that.

    However, if my wife wanted to switch her TSB account I assume she we need to open a NEW Halifax account? Will this work or will they class her as having already done a switch as I have used a joint account?

    Or would it be better to ignore the joint account and open a new one? Not sure I want to do this - that will mean funding 3 Halifax accounts. Not sure I can be bothered with the admin of that.

    I’m hopeful Lloyds start an offer soon, I wish to return to Lloyds. Halifax I’m afraid to say seem very rude when I visited the branch, can anyone advise if they have found Halifax to
    be good or bad?

    Im aware Lloyds own Halifax!

    Has anyone tried if they've previously received an incentive?
    Just curious with the success I've had with Natwest group when T&Cs said I shouldn't have qualified I did end up getting an incentive from each.
    Wondering if Halifax are as lax!

    my relationship with a bank and whether they are good or bad is entirely dependent on if they pay out a said incentive (and how efficient they are at doing so) or not. branches for me are irrelevant as there's so few left in my local town.
    i have no loyalty to any bank other than the one i opened 30 odd years ago and even then just for convenience of having so much set up with them.

    Don't know about Halifax but their parent, Lloyd's, sent me a very polite letter telling me why I wasn't getting a second incentive inside six months. 

    I didn't bother Halifax again.
