    Those opening a Chase additional account for the switch, are you associating your chase debit card with the new chase account you just opened, or do you lease it linked to the old chase account?
    I left the debit card linked to my original Chase account, and ticked the 'no debit card' option in the switch form. Got confirmation this morning from both RBS and Chase that the switch has been completed.

    This is what I did as well

    It’s been 24 hours since I put £1250 in! Should I still keep It in or can I take it out?

    Personally I'm going to leave it in an extra few hours each time, don't need instant access to it and it won't hurt.

    If you hear nothing you'll only end up repeating the process.

    How long after opening the accounts did people hear about switch dates etc? Not had anything yet since opening yesterday morning from NW, RBS or Chase.

    So happily I got the £200 from RBS yesterday, after a week or so. Miffed about their hard search that Clearscore told me about, especially when I declined the arranged overdraft! But still, easy money.

    I tried to open an Ulster Bank account last night, but there was a maintenance page blocking me, and NatWest had the exact same thing. Think they've cottoned on and started sharing the data on the triple bonus chancers? I'll keep an eye on this forum!

    That's good to hear people are getting multiples. My triple switch completed this morning, hopefully I will get the incentives next week. I also have a TSB incentive coming up end of March and that's me done switching. I'm treating my mum with a holiday in the sun as it's her 70th birthday, this will help me pay for that sea view :smile:

    Any one else finding their Nat West bonus hasn't arrived. My switch completed on the 27th. On the 28th I had a standing order for £400 paid in which was linked to my donor account. I then transferred in the remaining £850  separately the same day. The money is still there. I'm tempted to withdraw it and pay it back in again.

    Update - just had a text to say the bonus has arrived - checked and there it was.

    You need to give it 7 days. These things are not instantaneous. You'll probably get it early next week.

    My husband's switch also happened with NatWest on 27/2.  No bonus in his account yet, either.  Mine completed on 26/2 and the bonus was in my account the following day.
