I already apply for TSB current account via the refer to friend £75 last 5 months ago.
I guess I am not entitled for this £50 switch offer.

    Can you link to the switch incentive you are referring to? There's nothing I can find about any offer on their website

    It seems like it's only linked to from MSE site. I looked at it myself the other day, can't find any mention of it on TSB site only the refer a friend offer.

    It seems like if you already get interest on a Plus account from a previous application then you can open another account but you won't get the interest. I read you could if the other was a joint account, I can't because I already have two, read T&C's

    From £50 switch T+C

    "You must not already have a TSB personal current account at the time of application"

    "You must not have previously received an incentive for switching an account to TSB"

    "You can only benefit from this offer once"

    Could not figure out what is the different between £50 offer and £75 refer a friend offer?
    Who want to to use £50 if there are £75 refer a friend offer?

    Not quite sure what you're getting at here Alan!

    But, just to confuse matters further, there is, still, £50 cashback on Quidco simply for opening a TSB account. No switching needed. And no need to be a new customer. https://www.quidco.com/search/?search=tsb

    Pretty obvious. Those who don't have a friend who already bank TSB. £50 is a poor switch incentive probably why it is a Martin special only. 2 x £75 per referral is good.

    We are on MSE, where you'd use the Referrer's Board to find a friend.............

    Just it isn't a Martin special at all. Many of us have used the Quidco £50 offer for weeks, and there's a thread on here about it. Although the Quidco offer is a lot simpler than the MSE one.
