    I ordered card readers on Monday and nothing has arrived yet. Does it normally take this long for them to arrive?

    Hi - I have two bank accounts I want to switch in, but I want to get two x £125.
    I have just done the switch for one of them, so should I wait a few days until I am in the Natwest system before I switch the second account, or should I switch it in now as another new customer?

    Did you read the switch T&Cs?

    If it was allowed to switch more than one account and got another £125 incentive people on this thread would have done that. Some people on this thread have multiple accounts for this purpose ready to be switched at anytime.

    This has always been my view too but I am a bit surprised when applying for the switch to be given the option of "Current Account" or "Savings Account (Excluding ISA and FRB)" as my existing account.

    Anyone tried the latter option and had any luck?

    Sorry if this has been discussed, I had a quick search but found nothing.

    Did anyone have any thoughts on this? Anyone tried switching a savings account with this?

    The terms if this offer state:

    AND before 16 March 2018 you:

    complete a full switch of a non-NatWest account to your eligible account using the Current Account Switch Service; deposit £1,500 into your eligible account; and; log into our online or mobile banking service.

    So the question would be: can I switch a non current account, using the Current Account Switch Service? I guess that the answer would be that it's not possible.
