    Very happy to be able to report I received a text from Ulster Bank at 17:02 today thanking me for switching to them and advising that the £200 is in my Ulster Select Account. I have checked and it is there.

    I was already an Ulster account holder by virtue of a Loyalty Saver set up on 4 December 2023, which made life easier when I applied for the Select Account and requested a switch from Barclays on 15 February. The switch date was 23 February.

    I was by no means confident of receiving the incentive, having had one from NatWest as recently as 27 February 2023.

    Now wondering whether to push my luck and try for the RBS incentive by switching a secondary Chase account I only started a week or so ago.
  • I hope we can all now see it's definitely possible to get payments from all three of these individual but associated banks.

    Just to add my experience.  RBS switch completed yesterday (27th) and paid in the £1250 yesterday evening.  Ulster switch completes tomorrow (29th) will move the £1250 into Ulster tomorrow night. 
    Haven’t tried NatWest, as dont have 3 burner accounts but did get the NatWest bonus in November last year.  I got the RBS bonus in maybe 2019, so wasn’t entitled to it last year.  
    If I get RBS and Ulster this time around I’ll give NatWest a punt. 
    My credit score has actually gone up this month, despite opening these two accounts! 
    My score dropped 125 points because NW did 3 hard searches.  However they have agreed to remove two of them.
    natwest and ulster both did hard search on mine . 
  • Oh what the heck, gone for the hat trick.

    Don't think I'll do the 3 x £1250s together but I've been known to change my mind before!
  • Would it be a good idea to open up 2 donor accounts with my main bank to then switch to RBS and Natwest at the same time? Or would it be better just to open up 1 other account and another with a different bank and then do the switches?

    It doesn’t matter…..


  • Anyone switched into a NatWest account that had it last year. The same account number basically?

    Also waiting on my rbs payout…. Switch completed 26th…
    is that the only one you did ?
    Yes so far. Into my existing rbs account. Last bonus from rbs was 2019. I got NatWest and Ulster last year. 
    I also got the RBS switch of £125 in Aug 2019, but also got the extra £50 incentive paid in June 2020, so not sure if I'll qualify this time.  I think the £50 was paid if you used your debit card at least once a month for 6 months or something, and possibly kept your DD's active.

    Note: I also received the NatWest & Ulster bonuses last year.
  • Switch into my existing NatWest account completed on the 27th. My salary paid into the account (always been paid into that NatWest account) the same morning but no £200 bonus yet. Hoping it’s just taking a while to pay. I’ve never had switch bonus from NatWest before.
