Barclays £200 switch bonus.

Barclays £200 switch bonus.

How long does it take Barclays to notify you that you will get the bonus?

I’ve jumped through all the hoops and paid in 2k three days ago. Barclays say they will email you when you have met all the requirements. Does anyone know how long that takes as I don’t want to leave 2k in the account earning nothing for too long. Question, can I take the money out now that it has been recorded as paid in, does that still count.


I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.

    You get the bonus within 28 working days of meeting the eligibility criteria. I can't remember if they notify you.

    Thanks for reply, I'm aware it's 28 days but it also says, we will email you when you have met all the conditions. I'm sure I have done that so just wondering why no email.
