Thanks will try the base rate tracker as it's only for the extra bonus as I don't really want another hour wait on phone. 😃HHUK said:
Have a look at the qualifying accounts just over half way down this page. Then select which interest you and hit the green APPLY button*, again just over half way down the page:MACKEM99 said:Anyone know where the button is on line to open saver. Lots of info but cant find "apply here"?

*EDIT - just noticed that the green button doesn't appear for some reason for the Online Saver, but does for the Base Rate Tracker.**
** 2nd Edit - looks like the Online Saver now has to opened in the App, in a branch or on the phone, and there's no longer an option to do it on the website.1 -
Switch completed when I checked at 9am1

Mine was completed fine too, Kroo found the account in the verification check and moved 1p fine (took a few minutes rather than instant like my other transfers). the second DD was taken I guess just before the switch completed (bill was due 10th, taken 12th for weekend like normal, money is gone) but has transferred. I will do the 5 transactions and move the money like normal maybe in small batches just in case
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.

In case anyone is interested, my switch completed on 06Feb, £1k paid in on 07Feb, and debit card transactions cleared 08Feb. Received email saying £100 incentive had been paid on 09Feb, which was actually received in my account late this afternoon (12Feb).6

My switch completed on the 8th. Paid in £1,000 and received email saying I just needed to do the 5 transactions. Did those too and they cleared on the 9th. Not heard anything else yet.1

My switch completed on 9th and I've done the £1000, 2 standing orders but not received any email about the incentive! Waiting to do my 5th transaction tomorrow1

Switch was meant to complete on 9/2, no confirmation from either bank. Made £1k and 5 debits prior to switch, just to see whether they actually take notice.0
