Speaking on his Money Saving Expert site, Martin explained that top customer service bank First Direct is giving out free cash to new customers who switch to its accounts. Within 28 days of the switch, First Direct pays newbies an impressive £175, the Mirror reports. "That's a recipe for ending up broke.
