1️⃣ £175 Barclays bank switch bonus 2️⃣ £100 gift voucher from Nutmeg 3️⃣ Free National Trust day passes from Starling Bank
Good morning! Are you ready to turn this Monday into Payday? I have another strong week of high-paying offers for you to take advantage of.
Let’s get into it 👇
BANK SWITCH
£175 bank switch bonus from Barclays
What is it
This switching bonus from Barclays is only available until the end of August so it’s worth acting quickly on this one. They are paying £175 for new customers when switching from another bank. Not bad!
You can switch banking providers as often as you like so you can take advantage of multiple offers as long as you meet the bank’s eligibility criteria (often this means a minimum pay-in and have not been a customer for several years).
Do note that opening a new bank account can lower your credit score temporarily so this may be a consideration if you’re applying for a mortgage for example.
Steps to claim
1. Open a sole Barclays Bank Account or a sole Premier Current Account in the Barclays app.
2. Important: If you open the Barclays Bank Account you’ll also need to sign up for Blue Rewards which costs £5/month though this should pay for itself as you get 5% interest on balances up to £5,000 and other benefits such as an Apple TV+ subscription).
3. In the app, tap on ‘Switch account service’ on the Products tab and follow the steps to move your current account from another bank or building society over.
4. Pay at least £800 into your new Barclays account by 30 August.
Good to know
- Available to new customers only.
- The offer ends on 30 August 2024.
- The bank switch must include at least 2 active Direct Debits.
