Halifax reward current account

[UK345]

Considering switching to a Halifax reward current account however I do not have two DD so would not benefit from the £5 per month bonus. Would I still qualify for the £100 switch ? Anyone done this

You should do, but check the small print. My OH did this around a year ago without the direct debits and received the switch bonus (£125 at the time).

must be a way to get a cheap direct debit then cancel it?

The monthly bonus is paid each month £x amount goes in, and two DD go out. If you cancel the DD you lose the monthlies...

How about 2 x small DDs to charity?
(or even £2.50 to each at no cost to you?)

Thanks for the replies. I have read through the terms and conditions and it looks like i am entitled to the switch offer without having two direct debits. All good now thanks guys
