Every one of these offers excludes people who have had a switching bonus from that bank before. “Not stated” means the bank does not give the figure; it is never a zero. Terms change: check the bank’s own page before you switch.

How we track it

  • The tracker lists every current account switching offer in MoneyHQ’s records that is live, verified and pays a cash bonus. It is the same set of offers as our bank switching comparison.
  • Each offer is checked against the bank’s own page, never another comparison site. The “Last checked” column is the date of that check. The open offers were last checked between 2 October 2026 and 17 October 2026.
  • The page re-reads our records at least every hour, and straight away when an offer is updated. An offer leaves the table the moment it passes its closing date.
  • “Banks” counts brands as they sell themselves, so NatWest and Royal Bank of Scotland count separately. A bank with two offers, for different accounts, appears twice in the table.
  • The figures are what each bank states. Where a bank does not state a figure we say so; we never estimate one. MoneyHQ tracks the offers it can find and check, which may not be every offer in the market. If we have missed one, tell us at will@moneyhq.uk.
