Barclays £175 switch offer - new customers only, Nov 1 - 30 2023

Sumof999

my £5 came out this morning - no switch bonus yet though

the batch that were paid on the 20th hit peoples accounts around 10:20am by the looks of it or possibly earlier.... trying not to read too much into that as Barclays don't see to do things like other (better organised) banks seem to

No bonus for me as yet but the day is still young 

has anyone who completed the switch after 14th nov got the bonus yet ? supposedly it was meant to be paid on 2nd december

I was told that bonus payments are scheduled to take place on the 2nd of December 2023 and 2nd January 2024, so sounds like it will be done in batches ... I think it might just be a case of wait and see because no actual cut off date was provided.

The incentive was supposed to be paid within 28 working days of completion of the switch. Mine was completed on 23 November, so if the incentives are only due to be paid today or on 2 January I'll be disappointed not to have received it by midnight. (Not showing yet in the app.)

My £5 went out today but no bonus for me yet either.  Just did an online chat with an unhelpful Barclays agent asking them to confirm I’m eligible / when getting paid and asking about plans to pay out today or 4th Jan.   She wouldn’t answer it despite asking if just these two dates / paying out on any other dates / January is after my 28 days etc.     Will not be happy if have to wait till January.  Barclays are definitely the worst bank I’ve used in terms of switching to and will be glad to get bonus and leave them as soon as next switch offer comes up

My feelings entirely. Paid the £5 today, have £10 cashback winging its way to me from a £200 spend. Once I have that I'll cancel the Blue Rewards. I've set up a switch to the Co-op on December 21st. Once I receive that, it will take me up to £2460 in switching bonuses. Better than any savings account. Be a while before I'll be able to switch again I guess, but can still get further £125 from the Co-op if I find "friends" to refer, which I would imagine wont be too hard. Who doesn't like a free £125.

Does anyone know if there is a way to check the switch went through? Or best to just do it again? I tried calling Barclays and the person was less than useful.

Officially on here don't ask for referrals, against the Ts & Cs, however there is a Reddit thread looking for people to do just that

I haven't asked for anybody. Did I give that impression? I know a lot of people, member of a golf club so I'm sure I'll be able to find a few people. There's no limit so....

Nah it's just I have seen the board mods on here be proactive on it
