    Yes, I'm just waiting for my last DD to be set up on one account and then I will give it a go.

    It looks like you can switch online - I just logged into my Flexaccount and one of the options on the left-hand side was a 'Switch' option.
    You need to select the relevant account from the overall accounts page to see these options.

    Can you open the account then and switch later? I wasn't sure. I want to bag the cashback from TCB as well and don't want to miss the boat on it. My DDs should be ready by the end of the month so can I open the nationwide account now, switch then and still get the RAF bonus?

    The T&Cs are on their website, but time wise you simply need to open the account by the end of this month and then complete the switch by the end of August.

    Do Paypal Direct Debit arrangements work okay for these switches?

    In my list of direct debits in another account I own I have tesco internet saver and paypal direct debits. Would it be okay to switch these over?

    Thanks. Seems like an easy enough switch then.

    I will try it through Quidco again, although I'm still awaiting payment for my first Nationwide account from them.

    I see that topcashback states that cashback will only be allowed for one Nationwide account opened through them

    So I've done another through quidco , paying £35, but claimed under their highest cashback guarantee ( which they've agreed) for the remaining £43.75

    Quidco doesn't specify a limit to the number of Nationwide accounts opened and cashback allowed. I have emailed them but not got a sensible reply yet.

    Does anyone know?

    Incidentallly Nationwide told me there's no limit to the number of flexaccounts one can hold....

    If you are implying that you could have several FlexDirects concurrently: you certainly can, but you will only get 5% on one of them.

    The terms pretty much state that the new account needs to remain open for 3 months to ensure that that the incentive isn't taken back but there's no requirement to pay the 2 switched dd's every month as far as I can tell or am I missing something?

    A Flexaccount could effectively just lie dormant for 3 months would that be right?
