Hi,

Does anyone know what is the minimum number of days to deposit money (say £1000) to receive £5 every month.

Update

What date I will receive the £5? is it fixed?

0.001 of a day. A few minutes is fine.

Should be the first banking day of the month. It's sometimes a day late.

Mine usually comes at the end of the first banking day, i.e. after 3am on the 2nd working day

As stated on the front sheet of statements (and in the Terms & Conditions), "the Reward payment will be paid into your account before the 10th of each month".

It is normally processed at the end of the first working day in the month, and thus appears in your account on the second working day, with a date of the first working day. (As there are more working days than non-working days, it is likely to appear on the 2nd, with a date of the 1st.)
