Direct Debit A authorised successfully

Your first mandate has been submitted to Bacs and will appear in your banking app within 3–5 working days as BESWITCHREADY A.

Why do I need a second Direct Debit?

Most UK bank switching offers — including HSBC's current £500 bonus — specifically require two active Direct Debits, not one. Direct Debit B is your second mandate, appearing separately on your bank statement as BESWITCHREADY B. Together, both DDs meet the eligibility criteria for virtually every UK switching offer.
