Snoop are offering a £30 amazon gift card if you open an M Plus current account through them. This can be had in addition to the switch offer.

They also have a refer a friend offer in which you'll both get a £5 amazon gift card. Note do NOT use this forum to request/exchange referral links.

Tried looking for details but can only find an old offer. Do you have a link to the details or is it in their app?

Many thanks

It's in the app under switching at the bottom and then current accounts.

Just for opening an account? Or would I have to do a full switch and meet the other conditions too? (not interested in the virigin offer, just want the amazon ££)

There's no need to do the switch in order to get the gift card so you could just open the account for the amazon voucher and leave it at that if you wished.

There's nothing in the VM terms that says the DDs need to stay active after the switch, just that you need to include 2x DDs on the account you are switching. You can cancel/move them somewhere else manually after the switch completes.

Have to say this was a bit of a pain to do - application straightforward enough but Virgin still had me as a customer but I had no idea of the customer number. I had to dig around in the shredding pile as I remember they wrote to me about an old empty savings account which I spoke to them about closing and not sending me the paperwork - it was still open despite being told it was closed! Tip here - if you don't know your customer number you can actually verify and get it via SMS with your address etc if you don't know your account number - I only had the last 4 digits. Finally got my login and the app working again and applied - annoying you have to do the switch inside the app rather than doing it in the application process but anyway. Now to close the Co-Op saver in case it blocks the transfer. 

Did it via Snoop for the £30 Amazon vouchers - annoying too you have to give it access to a bank account during setup (just used a donor account which is empty) as you obviously don't have the Virgin account yet. Successfully linked so hopefully the switch will go ok and get the vouchers + take advantage of interest for a year.

Very similar situation here, luckily Virgin were quite happy to accept my email address in place of a customer number although my application is now awaiting a manual verification (I suspect this is related to an address formatting issue that I wasn’t able to alter as it was what they already had on record for me).

Also went via Snoop but it’s unclear at this stage whether that’s tracked correctly as I was having some connection issues this morning, will have to keep tabs on that one and see what happens when the everything is processed.

I did it in the app and had to keep restarting when I was getting blocked by Virgin as I wanted to ensure it was tracked but no idea if it will or not, I'll just close Snoop if they refuse it but have opened and done the switch so the £120 interest should be good enough
