The Business Banking Switch Scheme isn’t the same as the Current Account Switch Scheme (see above).
The Business Banking Switch Scheme was for people who held their business current account with RBS or NatWest – it offered incentives to switch to other providers. The scheme was one of the measures RBS and NatWest agreed to after they received a government bail-out in 2008. The aim was to decrease the market share RBS and NatWest held for business accounts and to improve competition in UK banking.
The scheme is now closed, but small businesses who hold an account with RBS or NatWest can still switch using the Current Account Switch Service.
