Co-Op bank - £200 if you switch to them

harz and milarky, out of interest did you follow the calendar month approach or 24th - 24th?
24th - 23rd. Two £800 lump sums and the next ones being a mixture of smaller deposits when I had transferred various savings income payments into the new account.
Like I said before that's (24th - 23rd) the only logical approach, as otherwise anyone with a transfer date very close to a month end would likely not have sufficient time to make the first payment before that same month end.
The Co-op pride themselves in being an ethical bank, so I don't believe the Co-op would deliberately put such an obstacle towards qualifying into the offer.0 -
Looks like everyone is getting paid regardless of when they deposited and they arent holding anyone to the calendar month definition. Nice one Co-op.You killed me scooter!!0

Got my £200 today without having to call CS. Didn't receive any letters (my payments were not exactly on the calendar month apart from the first but rather when I got paid).
Even went overdrawn once (forgot an SO) and didn't get charged.
Nice one co-op!0 -
