Santander 123 cashback on Ovo Energy direct debits

sarahswan1

Just opened a Santander 123 account, and have made sure that all our relevant direct debits have been transferred to the new account to get cashback on them. What I can't find out is if I will get cashback on our Ovo Energy direct debit? Reading back in the forum there was a long discussion from someone on getting cashback on theirs, but I can't find it now! I've looked at the list on the Santander website but that says it's correct as of January 2013. Nothing happens when I put Ovo in the search box.
Can anybody help?

May be try your search again? As it seems to be working for me.

Thanks so much! Looks like it might be a problem with our browser, but that's all the information I need.

I get cashback from my Ovo direct debit. I even overpay and get refunds now and again. Santander don't seem to mind...

As you will have found out by now, yes you get 2% with OVO. HOWEVER YOU GET NOTHING WITH CO-OPERATIVE ENERGY UNLESS YOU LIVE IN THEIR MID COUNTIES REGION!:(

Having spoken at length to Santander today to ensure that they give 2% on Co-operative Energy, I was told that they only gave it to Mid Counties region of this national company!

What!!!!! You need to modify your advice Martin as this will lose me over £300 cashback p.a. :eek::eek::eek:

Where did Martin specifically state that Santander give a cashback on Co-operative Energy?

And if 2% of your energy bill is £300 (:eek: indeed), I'd suggest shopping around, I'm sure you must be able to improve on £15K!

I also heavily overpay my Ovo bill via Santander for extra cashback.

How much do you overpay?

And isn't there a limit on how much cashback will be paid by Santander?

200%ish.

Others on the forum pay in 500/month then withdraw from OVO.

OVO pays 3% on credit as well and I usually keep about 700+ there.
