Wish I'd looked at this sooner I've never had a switching bonus from any of the three but did RBS last week and moved the £1250 in yesterday so just waiting for their bonus. Am I able to simply move from RBS then NatWest followed by Ulster and get all 3 bonus or would I need two burner accounts to get the other two or is it too late at this point 

That wouldnt have worked, youd have needed a couple more donor accounts but its too late now anyway. From the sounds of it you will at least be getting £200 so not too bad.

Maybe take a look at the Santander offer for another £185

I thought that, but a poster a few pages back said the deposit window commenced as soon as the switch process starts.

These are both the same thing.

Not as described in the respective posts.

One is after the switch has commenced and the other is after the switch has finalised.

This is incorrect. They are both the same. The fact that many people have received their bonuses when they deposited their £1,250 before the switch completion date confirms this.

The terms for switching to NatWest say "complete a switch of a non-NatWest current account to your eligible account", so probably yes, but to be on the safe side I would probably use a burner account from a different banking group. As the offer has ended it doesn't really matter for now until they start a new one.

Ulster want me to return my letter, it needs a signature. I've done the identification online, so the signature is all they want. It sounds like the rest of you got a different letter to me, hmph!

I did the Ulster switch last year and the only thing I had to return was the letter with signature.

I think there is some misunderstanding here. I am commenting on two different statements by two different people.

" I now have a switch date from Natwest, its completing on 9th (next tuesday) will the £1250 payment in work for the Incentive if i pay it in now rather than after switch has finalised?"

@Nasqueron said;


".....there isn't really anything to be gained by ignoring the terms of the switch and paying early"

How can these two be describing the same thing?

Those two statements are not what I'm describing as being the same thing.

Okay, it is a misunderstanding then.

It may work, it may not, I just don't see any point in ignoring the terms that say pay in after the switch completes - at best, you get the money, at worst, you have to bump the money back in again for another 24 hours potentially losing a bit of interest or not having the funds available again. It may not make any difference but you have 60 days anyway so why not just do it per the terms and avoid any gamble?

That is not what the terms say.
