Are Nationwide BS the slowest TopCashBack payers?

Yorkshire_Pud

As reported by B_M on the official mse TCB thread today Nationwide moved a load of Pending transactions straight to Payable bypassing Confirmed!:)

My Nationwide Credit Card CB became Payable so only took about 6 weeks from opening the account, well within the standard 12 week estimate. Maybe someone is taking notice!?

Still no movement on my Confirmed Current Account CB though. TCB are 'investigating':(. My Complaint to Nationwide directly is Pending moving to Confirmed on 16th February:)

I have a Nationwide account that I switched to from Co-op Bank that I never use and opened a TSB account in preference. Nationwide falls short in a lot of areas. As far as I'm concerned the "BS" in their name stands for something other than "Building Society".

Those that are waiting 6 months - are you keeping the account open, or have you switched the account away since?

My account still open and being used.

I forget exactly how long I waited for my payout (£84), but easily 4 months. I raised a support ticket - not sure if that made any difference or not. Worth hanging on for though - £84 not to be sniffed at IMO.

no real idea, in that i don't use TCB very often, but Nationwide seem to make everything take a long time: pay incentives slowly, respond to letters slowly, make settlement payments slowly. they're a poor bunch, CSwise.

I applied for their Select CC through Quidco
- Not tracked, raised enquiry with Quidco, still pending.
- NW sent me the PIN advice a week ago, but no card yet!

So, yes they're slow.

Of course. I was opening the account anyway as its 5% on £2.5K for year one so the cashback is just a sweetener to the deal (when it finally gets here )

it tracked for me on QC Vort..
but as from suggests, it will take a good while..
i will be keeping the account open for 12 months as it's free money..
and the incentive will, on previous form, finally be paid.

My Nationwide TCB £78 has now moved to payable (tracked in Oct 15 when opened account and went to Confirmed about a month ago).
