HSBC Advance Incentive Payments

Has anyone actually received their £125 as the first part of the incentive payment for completing all the steps? I completed all the steps for the initial £125 by 13th November which means the 20 working days is Monday 11th December - but I've had nothing to date. I'll wait until Monday then give them a chase up but curious if anyone has actually received the money or not?

    It gets paid into the global money account you need to have opened. Mine appeared there pretty quickly.

    My wife opened her account on the 18th November and she received the incentive today.

    Thanks - I contacted HSBC via the chat to enquire about this and they did some checks to confirm I'd met all the criteria and then paid the £125 to the HSBC Advance account immediately. They have advised I will get the additional £80 by 8th May.
