Handy hints

  • Good to know
  • What you need: 3 Direct Debits and a full switch, started by 9 December 2026.
  • Is it free? Yes, as long as you pay in £5,000 a month or have £100,000 saved or invested.
  • Need Direct Debits? Plum or Moneybox can set up free monthly Direct Debits to yourself. Keep them monthly, as quarterly ones aren’t always counted.
  • Follow every step: read the bank’s switch offer terms carefully and do each step within the time limits. Miss one and you can lose the bonus.
  • Space out applications: each new account can show on your credit file, so don’t open lots at once.
  • Who can’t get it: anyone who has had a switch bonus from Lloyds, Halifax or Bank of Scotland since 1 January 2023.
  • Earning more
  • Extras: 1% cashback on most card spending (up to £10 a month), online GP appointments and a yearly perk.
