Co Op Switch offer (seen 15th January 2024)

Well still no email or bonus. Patience is a virtue.....that I don't have!

Have to add that the transfers from co-op out are terribly slow.

I moved 1p as a test and then £25 for the saver from Kroo - both went through immediately to Co-Op

I moved 1p back to Kroo just to confirm it was working before I move £1000 - the money went yesterday but the transaction was posted today and still not arrived. The payee details are correct (and were verified), I will probably need to do the transfers in dribs and drabs as the £1000 I earmarked for this will be needed elsewhere!

Will do the 5 transactions over the next couple of days and see how it goes

Had my e-mail telling me I still needed to do the debit card transactions this morning, nobody has less patience than me but it will come for you hopefully.

I did a decent chunk for my first transfer and no it wasn't especially quick coming back.

Wife's tracker savings account finally popped up on the app mid morning, now funded with £30. The next steps email also received, just today's remaining 3 DC transactions to clear in a couple of days and it should be bonus time...£👍

Had a the "bonus status" email today, 13/2, saying £1k+ needed to be paid in (the only item left to qualify). The switch which completed 9/2 pulled in over £1k and I did the DC payments after that (they weren't mentioned as outstanding), so they are checking things in a strange way! Most of that £1k is going on a credit card payment, I don't really want to trap any more money in there so wont do a manual credit just yet given people are having delays getting it back.

For those tracking the DC clearing process, I did 5 x NS&I deposits on 10/2 and they showed as cleared this morning with a date of 12/2 (they weren't showing as cleared yesterday).

Update.

Just had an email confirming bonus has been paid.

Happy days. :-)

Noticed that my switch had completed yesterday (no email confirming this though).  Gone ahead and transfered the £1,000 over this morning, made 5 x debit card payments and already have 3 direct debits set up that were transferred over as part of the switch.

Opened a savings account and been approved for it.  Just waiting for that to show up then I can transfer the £25.

Hoping the first £100 will show up pretty soon.

Quite likely this is being held for security reasons. I suspect you'll probably need to chase it.

The pay in doesn't need to be £1k in one go, so you can pay in/out smaller amounts over the next few days if you're not in a rush and don't want to risk trapping a larger sum.
