many people will be saving up for the holidays - whether it be for that trip abroad, festival, or day out with the family. "That’s why we’re pleased to be introducing our new £180


switcher incentive, providing even more value for customers making the move to Santander. Article continues below "It’s a simple, straightforward way to get rewarded for switching,


while benefitting from our range of popular current accounts – making your money go that little bit further this summer.” Santander assesses whether a customer has achieved eligibility for


the offer 60 days after the switch through CASS has been requested. If eligible, the £180 payment is then made within 30 days after that assessment.
