    It usually shows on the second working day of the month.
    So I expect to see it Tuesday.

    This is what I would have expected too (as with the interest on my Lloyds Vantage accounts, which also normally shows on the 2nd working day of the month - which would be next Tuesday). However, on checking this morning, the £5 rewards are showing, as is the interest on my Vantage accounts).

    Same here, I just did my monthly ins and outs. I still do it manually rather than SO's so I have control over it.:)

    Hi all, hope you can help me with these few simple questions:

    1 - with regards to the 1k, does it have to be a whole 1k transfered or can it total 1k in smaller amounts to qualify for the £5.

    2 - Can the 1k come from another Halifax account and just moved around to get 35 in different accounts as i have 3.

    3 - How long do you have to keep the 1k in there?

    Thanks in advance

    Any mix is fine.

    Mine usually lasts about 35 seconds.

    Do faster payments work on weekends? I've done a transfer of £1000 from Lloyds to Halifax to pick up my £5's and will transfer back but the £1000 is not showing up yet.
