TSB up to £185 switch

[Sarah]

New current account switch offer starts today.

They include 6 months debit card cashback in the "up to £185" headline.

Switch your current account and get up to £185.

The terms of this offer start on 15 January 2024 and will last until the offer is
withdrawn by us.

£125 switch incentive
To qualify for the £125 switch incentive you must do all of the following:
Between 15 January 2024 and before the offer is withdrawn by us you must:

• Apply for a new TSB Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus account through tsb.co.uk, the TSB Mobile Banking App or in Branches.
• Submit a full switch request via tsb.co.uk or in branch to your new TSB Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus account using the Current Account Switch Service. The switch must be initiated before the offer is withdrawn and complete within 21 days of you requesting it.
• A full switch means all of your active credits and debits from your old account (not held with TSB) will be transferred across automatically as part of the service and your account will be closed.

And
By 15 March 2024 you must do all of the following:

• Make a minimum of one payment using the debit card on your new Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus account.
• Log into the TSB Mobile Banking App at least once.
• Have a minimum of 2 active Direct Debits on your new Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus account.
If you’ve done all these things, we’ll pay £125 into your new Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus account between 20 March 2024 and 29 March 2024.

Up to £60 double cashback

To be eligible for the double cashback, you must first complete the switch incentive conditions above and then:

• Make 20 or more payments using your debit card each calendar month to earn £5 cashback. For the first six calendar months (including the month your account is opened), if you meet the required number of transactions, we will double the cashback. This will appear as two £5 payments on your transactions and may occur on different dates.

Other conditions

• Your account must be open when we pay the switch incentive and the cashback. We won’t pay incentives or cashback after the account is closed, even if you’d already qualified for the payment.
• If you’ve received an incentive or benefit for switching to TSB Bank plc using the Current Account Switch Service since 1 October 2022, you’re not eligible for this offer.
• You can only benefit from this offer once. We won’t pay cashback again if you open a second account, either in your own name or in joint names.
• Only one payment will be made to an account, so if you later make it into a joint account and another party switches in, no cashback will be paid.
• If you have applied for a Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus and we then withdraw the offer before your account is open, you’ll still be eligible for the double cashback as long as you meet the eligibility criteria outlined above.
• TSB have the right to withdraw, alter or replace the offer at any time without notice.

i will have to check back

[Sarah]

I'll try my luck. Next month.

[Sarah]

Oh, now it's going to end soon...

This offer will be withdrawn on Wednesday 31 January 2024

Start a full switch using the Current Account Switch Service before 31 January 2024.

[Sarah]

So... can't wait until next month. Opened another account this morning, cashback £30 tracked immediately at Quidco and requested a switch using link on the final page after acceptance which shows the new sort code and account number. Thankfully no need to login, since we can't do that without the registration code they send by mail which might not arrive before this offer has been withdrawn.

[planteria]

well done. thank you for letting us know.

[planteria]

i've tried to do it today.. account opened, but the site was dropping out, and did so again, logging me out, before i could request the switch.

[Sarah]

It probably doesn't help that MSE sent an e-mail highlighting "last free (£185) bank bribe ending" yesterday. If the TSB website comes back up and you have the new account details, hopefully you can still submit the switch request today.

[planteria]

ah yes i've just done that Sarah. the website wasn't disappearing entirely, but it was crashing me out of the application. i called to explain that i couldn't complete the switch, as per the above, and was guided to the page you've linked to.. i thought i would need to be logged in to request the switch, but hopefully it is on track. £215 is worth having.

[planteria]

they have text me (nine times so far) today to tell me "Your switch is complete".
i'm hoping to bag the full bonus. i haven't been home to pick up the activation code / card yet, but will hopefully have both and complete the T20 soon.
