    Nope
    You will not be able to withdraw cash at an ATM using contact less anyway ..


    You obviously didn't understand my question.:)

    i've just started trying to earn a few pounds using this..
    5% on C/A and 5% on RegSav are welcome. trying to bag a £5% monthly bonus to is a nice little touch, but none of the Tesco stores around me offer contactless:undecided.. M&S and an independent Bar are all i've managed so far.

    My first contactless transaction didn't ask for a PIN. Only thing I'd done previously (that I can recall) was change the PIN at a cashpoint.
    I changed my pin but my first contactless transaction was still rejected - until I used the new pin to make a payment.

    Same with me. Have yet to use the card again so will see if works contactless next time!


    Life is getting more complicated now. I have been using my Halifax clarity card if I knew I was going to spend more than £300 in a month for the £5 reward. If it seemed unlikely I used my Aquacard to get 0.5%. Now for contactless purchase I will use the TSB!

    Is the cashback credit at the end of the month? I used contactless on Friday, the amount has been deducted with no cashback discount.

    2.3 Cashback on your qualifying purchases will be paid during the next calendar month (for qualifying purchases
    made in September 2015, cashback will be paid in October 2015).

  • I did change my PIN a while ago (i.e. well before the first contactless transaction). I would probably have checked that the new PIN worked at a cashpoint too, which might have been a further 'transaction' perhaps. I know I hadn't used for contactless before on that account/card though.

    Clear as mud. Could it depend on the retailer perhaps? Probably safer to follow the advice above and try a small initial contactless payment to make sure.

    Didn't really want to create a new thread, but when did TSB remove their requirement of direct debit requirement for their 5% interest current account?

    Does the cashback offer worth with any outlet?

    There has never been any requirement for DD for TSB plus account ...
    To earn interest, which is paid monthly, just pay in a minimum of £500 a month and register for Internet Banking, Paperless Statements and Paperless Correspondence, that it is.

    It should work on any outlet as long as there is a way to pay using contactless debit card.

    There has never been a requirement for direct debits on the account to receive interest or access to the regular saver.

    There was a recent switching offer that required direct debits to be set up, but that was purely for receiving the switching offer.
