I moved my TSB to Barclays fine earlier last month and got the incentive, sounds like a glitch from the last minute - maybe they had closed the process early? Worth a complaint at least
Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

Yes, TSB switching should work ok, both I and Mrs Zman did TSB to Barclays in the last 2 weeks. So it looks like a glitch (or the wrong sortcode was entered, which might identify a non-CASS bank!).Nasqueron said:I moved my TSB to Barclays fine earlier last month and got the incentive, sounds like a glitch from the last minute - maybe they had closed the process early?

Barclays won't have 'closed the process early' as the switching process had no deadline for closure. It was the switching incentive that had a deadline. You can merely switch anytime.2 -

The Barclays App is terrible!! In the Help section it says to contact them to use the "Message us" button (or something like that) but I can't find it!! Can anyone tell me where to find it?0

If you're a new customer it won't appear yet, but it should appear eventually. Give it at least 10 working days.phil7445 said:The Barclays App is terrible!!

I just got the following text from Barclays...
You may have had an issue switching your account to us last night in the app - we're so sorry about this. If you haven't been able to complete your switch yet and would like to take advantage of our £175 Current Account Switch offer, please do so before Tuesday 5 December. As long as you meet the eligibility, you'll still receive the £175 bonus. Thanks for bearing with us. Your Barclays team.
Phew! Pleased I was too busy with work to call them today!3
