I don't think NatWest show DD's until they actually pay out.

Being too eager, I just received an email and text confirmation of switch to NatWest, which does say DDs will show after first payment.

Thanks.

You can double check the DDs are in place by contacting CS, either by phone or using webchat/Cora.

My accounts have transferred, Barclays to NatWest and Chase to RBS. However, my NatWest account says it has no DDs, there were two on the Barclays account. Is that something peculiar to NatWest does anyone know?

have you transferred £1250 in each accounts ?

Not yet. As I have confirmation the switches are complete my plan was to do that today and then (at least try to) move it back out on Wednesday.

Hi everyone! I just opened a second Chase current account and I'm using this to switch to RBS. On the process of the application/switch, RBS is asking if I have a debit card. If I put the debit card number that is within the app, will it cancel that direct debit and hence my main Chase account won't have a debit card?

You can enter the debit card number along with the account details. It will stay attached to the first Chase account. 

Cheers

My wife has today started a switch from Co-op to a new RBS account, her Co-op tracker saver is still open and funded, so we'll await further developments on that side...we decided that by the time her Co-op £50 saver bonus Is paid in late March the NatWest group offer may be withdrawn, so rather than risk waiting, she'd prefer to have the £200 from RBS in the bag and chance not getting the £50...

So far the opening process has been far quicker and easier than Barclays was, and probably quicker than creaky old Co-op😏...

Has anyone attempted this having done a switch in late 2019 but got the bonus in 2020? I await to hear if you are successful. For note, it was RBS for me at the time.

My switch money had landed. Switch date was 23rd. Had a previous bonus from NatWest last year. Hope this info helps people.

@jefaz07 congrats! did you transfer the £1250 before the switch date or after the switch date? 

Both. I transferred 2k as soon as it was open then read on here it might be after the switch. So took it out day before the switch then re deposited switch day. So I’m not sure which bit activated it. 

It was more info that I had a NatWest incentive last year. And RBS this time.

The plot thickens with my application with Ulster.
Gave up at the point of them wanting photo id, as explained earlier I can't provide it, old style licence, no passport. They asked 3 times to upload them, I ignored them.
So over the last few days I get, please sign  this form and return we'll get your account number/sort code sent. I've also been sent a customer number and a, "welcome to Ulster Bank" your account is set up, and an activation code and is on its way. Your card and pin will follow shortly.🤔
Oh and by text this morning, your switch will complete by 27th February.
It's all going through without proof of photo id.

They've paid quickly then!

Thanks for the info - good to see updates...and good for people who have previous switches with any of the 3 banks.

I have a switch due 28th (Natwest) and 29th (RBS). Both switching from extra chase accounts, not had incentive from either before. I will update if i get the payment(s).
