    Just a quick question.

    If they have paid out/are paying out on a topcashback £80 offer (now £35) – presumably they will still pay out if you open/switch another account via Quidco. Has anyone got both?

    I gather you can have 4 sole current accounts with NW – with as many flexaccounts as you want?

    I applied for a FlexDirect and a Flex Account via Quidco 22 & 23rd April using NW switching service, both having a cash back of £80 and not appearing to prohibit this.

    The FlexDirect was opened 27th, Flex Acount only confirmation of application up to now.

    None of these are tracking on Quidco

    I don't like how I can call up the landline, say my name is, and they will happily give me bank account details without any security questions..

    Do I need to keep £1k in there until the incentive arrives?

    I have recently opened two FlexDirects: one via Quidco (tracked immediately on 12th April, and due for payment on 21st July), and the other via TCB which tracked on 13th Feb and is due for payment after 12 weeks. That one did go to "Confirmed" after I was asked for some security info (I think both Quidco and TCB asked for my post code when I was in the process of switching).


    Touch wood that it will all progress.


    So, this is two FlexDirects and one FlexAccount.

    Are these transactions actually recorded on Quidco? I always check this immediately I've made a transaction on any cashback site. (By going through the complete complaint procedure until you get to the date of the transaction).

    Firstly, do you see such a requirement in the switching incentive T&Cs?


    Secondly, they want you to switch your account...not just blag an incentive. So, if the £1,000 was your salary, how annoyed would you be if they wouldn't allow you access to it for a month?

    Mine is recorded on quidco. It originally had a payment date of 24/4 but it is now saying "payment delayed."

    The whole application process is seriously messed up, with multiple letters all telling you to go into the branch with ID.

    I gues they are going to withhold it - either because of refer a friend or because it wasn't completed wholly online.

    Thanks for that info. I am still to be paid on any of my 3 as well. They were switched on 13/03/2015 and I credited the £1000 on 19/03/2015.

    I got my forms signed and dated on the last day of the old offer so should be paid but haven't and it seems I should have by now given what others have said.

    Think I will chase them up in the morning if I get chance.


    My second switch completed 23/3/15, though I'd asked for 13/3 :( £1000 deposited 24/3/15. £150 credited yesterday evening :)

    No,I did check immediately on Quidco but there was nothing, I remember something about it may take 3 days to track, so as it is still not there I have raised a claim on Quidco, this is now in their "cooling off period".

    Just noticed that as well as the Quidco offer ending today at midnight the TCB £35 cashback for Nationwide switches is also ending today as well.
