    You can get the info from the app..It says
    "If you’ve done all the things we asked of you at the end of the month, you’ll get your offer around the 12th of the following month. If your offer is £5 we’ll pay into your account and it’ll appear on your statement. If the offer is voucher codes, these will be sent by email from yourreward@halifaxreward.co.uk"

    My Reward tracker has not updated from last month, I am going to wait until it updates for this month before depositing £1500 and the £500 DC spend.
    Mine updated today to show I was on track for reward for June.

    Did you 'opt in' within the deadline given in your letter? If not, did your account ever show simply as a Current account?

    We're all a bit nervous about that! Did you take a screenshot, today, so that you've got a  record of how you came out of June with the conditions for June satisfied?  I did. ...  ;)

    I get a “Something’s gone wrong” error when I click on the “Track Your Reward extras” link.

    Hopefully they are rolling it over for July tonight to pay the £5 tomorrow.

    Payment is not due tomorrow. It's around the 12th of the month now.

    I've never had a letter or email about any changes to my Reward account and just checked my Reward account at 00:20 and got my £2 reward with a balance of £5.09 to pay my 2 credit card DDs.

    Second reward account opened around 21st June. Did £1500 pay-in straight afterwards. Received debit card on 29th June. Made a payment for around £230 on 29th June, then next day (30th June) made a payment for £280. Tracker does take a couple of days to update. So, yesterday when I checked tracker, it said the £500 pay-in was not satisfied for that account. When I check today it says £500 pay-in satisfied. Seems tracker is using transaction processed date as opposed to transaction date. Anyone wanna hazard a guess if the reward will be paid for June. 

    Don't tell me it says somewhere that the transaction processed date is what counts.
