Key Considerations Before Switching
\nCheck eligibility carefully – Many deals exclude existing customers<\/p>\n
Compare ongoing benefits – Some accounts offer better long-term value than the bonus<\/p>\n
Review customer service ratings – A bonus isn’t worth poor service<\/p>\n
Plan your switch – Ensure direct debits will be active during transfer<\/p>\n
When to Act
\nThe Barclays offer runs until 28 August 2025, but banks can withdraw promotions early if oversubscribed. First Direct’s popular deal (with its market-leading 7% regular saver) is also expected to change soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
