Throughout April, Premier and Premier Direct customers can benefit from an increase in the popular Recommend a Friend offer from ?25 to ?50* - with both them and any friends they introduce receiving £50 per account.

And as a further bonus, the first 20,000 new and existing current account customers who register, and use the mobile banking service between 1 April and 30 June 2007 will receive £10 credited to their current account.** The mobile banking service gives customers secure access to their account information - wherever they are in the world.
