I had a switching offer early last year otherwise I would’ve applied for it.

Question is has anyone ever got multiple bonuses from TSB? Annoyed because I am doing the ongoing offer from the last one so could’ve got an extra fiver a month. Oh well!

They do check so the chance of getting more than one bonus since October 2022 is slim.

So in theory, next year you might be good for another

I admire your optimism.

Not switched to them before but have a dormant current account with them for the Regular Saver.
Can I switch another current account in and have 2?

You can have as many Spend & Save accounts as you like, but only one Spend & Save Plus account (in your own name, you can also have a joint one).

If they only require 2 years since last one and someone switched in 23, 25 might be possible, never know!

New account opened without any issues even though I already have 1.
Do you think they'll except a HSBC Global Money Account as a transfer?
Opened another Halifax Current account as a standby.

£22.50 also if you go through Quidco. Topcashback £40 but that's for the Plus account.

Yep, spotted that one myself: it tracked immediately too. Been a long time since I’ve had any luck with cashback sites, so here’s hoping.

Everyone beware: the Quidco deal requires you to cycle £500 a month through the account for the first 3 or 4 months to get the bonus, as well as 2+ debit card payments. I didn’t look at the fine print on TCB as the Plus account is not quite worth the extra payout for me.

I tried applying and got declined, that's never happened before! 
Sucks as it's the only bank that doesn't require a minimum of 2 DD per month...

Have you ever tried a switch offer from them before? Or are you a completely new customer?

No, never been with them. I'll try again in two days. I'm wondering if it's because of my place of work (I work at place A but technically employed by a bigger company which owns place A and others)
I'll try again in a couple of days.

I think I could add everyone beware quidco are terrible for tracking and paying in my experience. I did the link from MSE to get a bonus as a first time user, the purchase was tracked and has the green light from retailer, it was 26th April, QuidCo saying it will be paid maybe 25th April 2025 when I would then get my £21! TopCashBack are way quicker in my experience, very quick to do the bonuses I have had

Yep i was declined by them at last offer, which was a first for me too, but applied for this one yesterday and got through.

In other news, would doing 20 X £1 amazon top ups cover the 20 debit card purchases? And am i reading it right that 25 purchases are needed in the first month of switch completion?

Thanks very much - and just my luck - amazon even stopped the ability to get cashback vouchers the other week as well

I agree with your view,
For anyone that doesn't want to use Quidco.
TopCashback are now doing £20 for a New Spend & Save Account. https://www.topcashback.co.uk/tsb-spend-and-save-account/
If you use the link below ( you need to be logged in) submit the Quidco page with the £22.50 and it will be matched.

They matched my TSB one from Jan and been paid.
