Morning all, a quickie...has anyone on this switch journey ever had an email, message, or text to say they've qualified for the incentive £175 payment please?

Based on previous reports, that rather helpfully comes a few days after the payment is made.

My switch completed on 10th November and no payment received yet. By my calculation, the 28 working days will be up on Friday 22nd.

So not long to wait now....

Same for me, fingers crossed for this week!  However, I worked out that 28 working days from 10th November is Wed 20th December.

Ooh yes you're right !  That'll teach me not to count on my fingers before sufficient tea is consumed.

I believe it's been suggested earlier in this thread that the incentive is likely to be paid on a Monday? If that is the case then for a lot of people (myself included) the last Monday to fall within the 28 working days period will be next Monday 18 December.

It was also suggested earlier in the thread that it would be paid on the 4th but that day came and went. I think we can safely assume that no-one actually knows when the incentive will be paid apart from what is stated in the offer terms and conditions

Everything ok with me on the switch so far. Got £10 rewards for Nov and Dec for £200 spends on the debit card also the £5 blue rewards out and back in again. Obviously my DD's have paid out just waiting for the switch incentive now. Switch happened 27th November so early days yet, nothing today, yet.

after getting paid the £10 cash back in Nov and Dec and awaiting the switch reward of £175 ( hope its soon). are there any cash back incentives next year or do you get them only if you spend with the selected retailers... ?

There may be. If you already have paying direct debit(s) set up, then it costs nothing to retain Blue Rewards. I think I'll be jumping ship after January's fee/reward personally unless something appears early in the new year.
