Barclays Current Account Switch

WhoisDannie

If I switch to Barclays Current Account and join Blue Rewards for £5 a month to get the £175 switching bonus how long do I have to keep the account going before I can close it? 

Even a year would still be profitable.

once you have satisfied the switch conditions (pay in £800, switch account inc. 2 direct debits, open blue rewards account) and recieved your £175 you can leave blue rewards and close the account. Will only cost you 1 X £5.

Once you are paid the incentive you are free to cancel Blue Rewards or switch away.
