Barclays Unveils Switching Deal Worth Up To £900 For New Customers

Eligibility hurdles and fees limit how many people can claim the full amount.

Overview

  • The time‑limited offer runs for current‑account switches completed between 7 October and 27 November, with ISA transfer steps due by 28 November.
  • Switchers get £200 for a Blue Rewards current account or £400 for a Premier account, opened via the Barclays app with a full CASS switch, two active direct debits, and pay‑ins of £2,000 or £4,000 within 30 days.
