Nationwide 5% cashback on supermarket spending

Think the first refund came on March 28th so not expecting it yet a while although all the spending was in the first week of March. Unless the money has already run out???

They said there was £100m. The maximum you can earn is £10 per card, per month. The £100m would be enough for 3.3m cardholders to receive the full £10 in each of the three months the offer is running.

Not all cardholders will use their card in a supermarket, and some won't receive the full amount. So I think the liklihood of the cash having run out already is minimal.

Also, if they didn't have enough to pay all the March cashback, I think people would receive partial payments, rather than some receiving the full £10 and others receiving nothing. 

Patience is required!

Would the gift card have to be purchased direct from the supermarket to get the cashback?

Yes.  If it were purchased other than in a supermarket it wouldn't have been a supermarket spend.

Why is it only supermarket spend anyway?
Why an ethical bank/building society doesn't do something similar to Amex and their shop small? Supporting small shops instead of big supermarkets? What Nationwide did is incentivise people to shop only at the biggest chains.

The secondary list included lots of others, some of which appear to be smaller shops or chains.

For your amusement ...

Mrs B came home from Morrisons yesterday ... "I finally remembered to use my Nationwide card today"

Checking the bank today, I see she used the credit card!!!

I thought I got Feb cashback for both HB and B&M. It was the only way I could get to the total of about £6. (Haven't received the Mar cashback yet).
