Barclay Premier Current Account £400 switch

I think a similar question was asked but thought I should seek clarity before asking. 

The account says for earners over £75k only, but the switching criteria says to be able to pay £4k in each month. 

I can move money around to do this, and only play on getting the account for the switch bonus, but I know when applying for bank accounts they ask what your salary is. 

Would I be able to meet the terms by just moving £4k in to it over the months of having it?

Thanks

  • Does the application process ask what your income is? Only way to check is to download the app and apply. If it does ask, it would be foolish to overstate it unless you want to end up on the National Hunter database.
