Visa credits

Hi. Can anyone please tell me what Nationwide mean by Visa credits when they say they don't count towards the £1000 per month you have to pay in to earn interest. Can you transfer money from another bank account (not Nationwide) to fulfill this criteria



Thanks

    Visa credits are payments into your account via the Visa card network using your debit card details, which would principally be debit card refunds or gambling winnings. This would not include any cash deposits into your account, funds transferred in from other bank accounts or cheques, all of which indeed do count towards the £1k.

    Quick answer : yes

    2 easy ways of doing this- either manually- in and out, or set up a SO to pay money in and then send it on, or back

    £1K could also be £250 bouncing in and out x4 per month
