Switch to First Direct as a Joint Account

If both of us have currently got single persons accounts with First Direct, can we switch our current (joint) account to FD and still get the £175?

    We did this, simply converting my single account to a joint one.
    I preferred that because I'd had the account for 24 years and didn't want to faff around with DDs etc.

    To answer OP's question, I think it's 'no', one of the terms of FD's offer is that neither party has held any FD products or accounts, which isn't true in OP's case. They can go ahead and switch, to enjoy the presumably good service they have from FD with their individual accounts, but there won't be another switching reward, if I've read the terms correctly.
