Free Wine - Existing First Direct 1st A/C holders who apply for Gold Card

I've just received an email for existing First Direct 1st Account customers who apply for AND obtain a NEW Gold Credit Card before 14/6/09.

If £100 is spent on the card within the first 2 months you will receive 6 complimentary bottles of wine. Obviously if you spend the £100 on something you would have bought anyway, and pay it off in full, the wine is FREE! :beer:

    Anyone else seeing this offer?

    I am with FD but don't receive marketing from them. 6 bottles of vino might just persuade me to apply!
    Whilst my posts do not constitute financial advice, I am always, without fail, 100% right! :D

    Grrr, That would rule me out then... It would also explain why I did not get the message unlike the OP..

    Thanks for the heads up though, nice offer.
