Serial switcher

Options
Hi all,

Over the last year or so I've switched to various banks got the reward then switched to the next bank.

So far I've had rewards from:
HSBC
SANTANDER
LLOYDS BANK
ULSTER BANK
TSB

I had to stay with TSB for 6 months to get the additional £75 now I'm ready to move again.

I think these all belong to different banking groups. Are there any other UK banking groups I could look to next?
Or will I have to wait 5 years before doing it again?

Thanks in advance.

    You'll probably find you can get a bonus out of Natwest and RBS even though the Ulster bonus should preclude you (so no cause for complaint if it doesn't work out).

    Barclays, the Co-operative Bank and Nationwide have all run offers in the past, and I presume will again. Just keep an eye on this board for info. Halifax and First Direct too - although they might block you based on your Lloyds/HSBC switches. Then again they might not!

    Virgin Money have also offered switch incentives in the past (tho not since 2022) - whether they will or not again possibly depends if the Nationwide buyout goes through.
