    Just got this below. No text about 175 though

    Your account switch to Barclays has been completed. You may check your account balance and other details in branch, online, via our ATM services or by phone
    The incentive text usually arrives 2 or 3 days later.
  • Anybody get this message when part way through the applications process? ' sorry we cant open your account right now '.

    Cheers

    Yes. I did. But you've missed missed the cutoff for this month. It needed to be done by 31st July.

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    Go to first FAQ section below the Apple/Google store logos, and there's a link to "Apply for a Barclays Bank Account online"



    Only if you dont have documents or UK mobile. Besides it was closed at that time and offer states app only for switch bonus.

    It has worked twice for me, despite having those documents and a UK mobile.

    You might want to read this comment:

    Anyway, it sounds like you're looking for issues so feel free to just ignore me and not bother applying


    So... alternatively, does applying through the website work and is an accepted method to recieve said bonus?

    Yes it does/is
