New HSBC debit card 2% cashback scheme from 1 July

I have received an email confirming thst from 1 July until 1 October HSBC are offering 2 per cent cashback on all purchases on visa debit cards to their current account customers up to a maximum cashback of £10 a month ( equating to £500 of monthly spending).

Presumably an attempt to match the co op and TSB - but odd that it's only for 3 months!

It's apparently a summer treat for customers.

    Just finishing off an amex 5% offer then I will hit this (once I have done my 100 per month on tsb and anything under 2 quid goes on coop of course). Useful for Aldi.
    I think....

    If, as frequently happens, all three of 'my' (my own and both our joint account cards) debit cards demand PINs ,I use my Co-op card as I at least get 5p and TSB aren't getting my payment for nothing.


    Why not just limit up to £1 automatically going onto your Co-op card, as TSB's cashback is cumulative so 2 payments of £1.50 earn 15p instead of just 10p (every little helps;) ) ?

    I've got a HSBC Advance account and haven't received an email. I wonder if this is customer specific.

    Might be, I know one HSBC advance customer who got the email and one who hasn't yet.

    I've had the same email too. Maybe they are sending them in batches?

    Tsb I reserve exclusively for aldi where I spend over 100 per month anyway and currently fall back onto barclaycard 0.5%
    I think....

    I have an Advance a/c and rec'd the email at 10am yesterday. Large mailings are often sent out in batches.

    Having said that, it could be targeted. I only have the HSBC a/c to access the regular saver and tend to make a single small debit card transaction every 2 or 3 months just so there is some other activity on the account. My last such debit card spend was only a week or so ago.
