Halifax Clarity Reward Question

When calculating the £300 spent in a month, is this based on the actual transaction date or the date entered on the account?

The date entered into your account.

Remember the Reward is given based on your Total Spend per Statement Month (not calender month). So if your statement date is 16th, you made a purchase on 15th which did not reach the statement in time (and as a result failed to get the £300 required), you will not get the reward.

(However, that transaction on 15th will count towards your next statement's Total Spend)

Thanks, just what I thought.

My statement day is today, but already reached the £300 this month. Had a bit of a spending spree today (if you can count the leccy bill as being a spending spree!), so wanted this to count towards next month.

Just out of interest, when is the £5 reward credited to the card, in relation to the statement date?
I know I could just wait and see, but I'm too impatient :-)

It's handy to have a utility company who accepts surcharge-free credit card payments if you haven't quite reached the £300 target in a given month...

Mine was credited to the account on the 1st of the month following the qualifying spend.

Mine is consistently (well over 2 months now) 2 working days after the statement date.

I've searched this site and read through the T&C's and can't see any mention, so thought I'd ask here.

Does withdrawing cash abroad go towards the £300 monthly spend? Or is it just purchases?

Looking at the T&C's I think it's just purchases, can anyone confirm?

Thanks in advance.

Just purchases.
