    Yes, i think you're right.
    I'm only going to be making the odd cheque that i may receive. So can't have any sort of bonus.

    Get a £5 reward, when in each month you pay in £750 or more, pay out two different direct debits and stay in credit
    I, and many others, pay in £750, and immediately move it out again (less what is required for the DDs) every month.

    It's not new money, it's been circulating round my accounts for years.

    I do something similar, though I leave a small balance and do 'use' the account every 3 or 4 months, for example to make a small payment to my credit card.

    It would be rude to decline Halifax' kind offer of £5 every month, in return for very little effort;)
