Barclay's Blue rewards

Does the Barclay's Blue rewards require two separate direct debit mandates or just one?
It says you get £3.50 for your first two direct debit payments but doesn't mention anything about two mandates.

    Just one....
  • I trialed this with just 1 DD mandate going to the Post Office Online saver paying weekly for a month and they gave me the reward, so it would appear that 1 DD will meet the requirements. Though I was already a Blue Reward customer before doing so, so if you are new then I don't know if they would do more checks if you are signing up for the double rewards.

    It is paid £3.50 per direct debit paid out per month, 2 pays £7.00 which is doubled if you switch an account, the account has a £3.00 per month charge.
  • I signed up with just one dd, and I get £14 per month for two dds (the same mandate) paying out

    A single mandate that pays out multiple times per month (eg. weekly/fortnightly DD) will be sufficient to qualify for the rewards
