    Fair enough, keep me posted. I have done all but no confirmation of getting the offer or not. It seems very long time considering I done the NatWest switching one & the money was in the account after 2 days 😅 
    They all generally have a 30 to 60 day window. We don't know how long AIB will take as it's a very long time since they last did a switch offer, back in their First Trust days. It could be 2 days as well, we just have to wait and see.

    I remember the good old days when Halifax used to pay as soon as you switch was in progress. I was due to switch on 24th of July but the £150 incentive was paid by 19th of July!
    As Danny said  just a case of wait and see....

    I think Lloyds may still do this.

    Good to know that Danny. Unfortunately I can't get either as I had Lloyds in 2019 and Halifax in 2022 😂 
  • I have finally received in the post today my eight digit registration number (was produced on 23rd), a card reader (required to set up some new online payments) and a letter confirming my switch to AIB is complete.

    Will just have to wait and see how long the switch incentive and savings cashback take now 😂

    Happy days Aidan, at least we got everything eventually 😂 
  • Anyone got any confirmation yet about the bonus?

    Nothing yet. Not much we can do as they have up to 60 days after fulfilling each of the requirements to pay it.
    There may not be any confirmation (e.g.by text), it may just appear there.
