Nope I have just sent a followup via twitter direct message pointing out is now 12 days since I first lodged a complaint by secure message.

Still happy with £100 so thanks to Colsten and others on this.
Great start to the weekend. Thanks to whoever it was who followed the instructions.
Maybe they are doing these in tranches.
Note that no (even delayed) email notification of payment has been received yet.0 -
I got my joining incentive but my sister did not, she received an email yesterday saying she didn't meet the criteria. We were referred by the same relative and had a similar timeline.
Here's her timeline, has she done something wrong?- 26 August we both got the email referral
- 27 August she opened her account
- registered for online and mobile app banking
- transferred £500 on 27 Aug, 27 Sep, and 25 Oct
- 16 September full switch of her old account completed
- once she got her debit card, she made more than 10 online and store purchases in the first 2 months (Sep and Oct), then didn't stop using her card, made a couple more in Nov. Not in each month, but in total across the first two months there were more than 10.
Thank you.
PS. Our relative got £50 for my referral, she has not referred anyone else except us.

Got 2 more £50 now - one more BonusA and one BonusB. Which completes what I expected (I was referred and I referred two people).
Their timing does seem fairly random.
The two BonusAs (one 10 days ago and one yesterday) should, logically, have both come after the BonusB.
Or, at least, the BonusB should have happened at the same time as the first BonusA.
If you see what I mean.0 -

Thanks both, she'll have to call them to on Monday. We just wanted to check whether we misunderstood anything. We're puzzled... my timeline was almost the same, maybe off by 1-2 days and I got mine last week.0
