    Not heard anything as yet so rang the 0500 number to be told my complaint is still under investigation and I would hear something shortly.
    Good news. Got a call from Barclays customer services today to say that I would be receiving my £100 within 28 days of the 2nd £1k deposit which I made on 6th March.

    Is there a prize for the first person to confirm they've received the £100 bribe..?!

    (Of course there is - a cash prize of £100)
    Expect the worst & hope for the best...

    Well, it's my 28th day today and, guess what, no £100. So, it looks like I'll have to call the sweet people on the 0500 number again.

    It's probably 28 working days:D or even worse a month of Sundays :eek:

    I'd leave it 'till Monday.

    I'd leave it a few days too.

    The payment may have been initiated but it's not showing up on-line yet.

    The complaints manager phoned me back bang on time and apparently the only criteria for online banking is that you open the account online, once that is done it is just a normal account. He has also assured me that I will receive my £100 once my second £1000 has been deposited in the account.
    I had a follow up letter today stating that as per the phone conversation yesterday I would receive my £100 once my account is credited with £1000 in both March and April.
