    that was my understanding, hence my query.

    the 5% is obviously nice, but the £2500 limit to it reduces the appeal...maximum £100 to be had for taxpayers...

    if anyone joins Nationwide for this, perhaps they ought to run it for 12months, put the £100 into a bond with them to leave in the draw, and then move to another account with a good incentive/rate. one day that £100 might yield a nice windfall when Nationwide Bank IPOs:lovethoug

    What are you on about? What draw? What IPO? Even if there ever was one, the vast majority of account holders would not get any windfall because for almost 20 years now, everybody signed away their rights for any windfalls.
