Thanks. I’ll keep checking, but yes, I knew I was taking a punt. If it’s unsuccessful I’ll just switch across the FD - well I was going to do that anyway!dealyboy said:

I didn’t have the £1250 to pay in in full, so transfered £250 in and out and back in a few times, so should have hit the threshold? If not, I’ll transfer the full amount in next week on payday.I also received the RBS incentive in 2019(roughly) so they could have figured that out?
From memory it can appear in the afternoon, I think one of my NatWest group incentives arrived at about 3:00pm, and one on the 8th day morning. So just checking, it has been 7 days since the last of the four conditions met?
It's possible that they found out, but then you knew you were taking a chance

Day 8 and still no sign of the bonus.As I mentioned previously, I transferred £250 in and out a few times rather than the full £1250 in one go. I did this all over the course of a day, so maybe it’s not recognised it?Or, they’ve realised I got the RBS bonus back in 2019, which is frustrating given that some people on here report that they’ve got all 3 rbs, NatWest and Ulster this year alone!0

Send them a message or chat (if you can get past Cora and actually chat with a real person) and enquire - saves hanging on hopefully. Mine didn't show up after about 9 days so I contacted them and they confirmed I wasn't eligible as I had had an incentive previously inside whatever the disqualifying date was - which indeed I had being a NatWest switch one. However, didn't stop me getting RBS and Ulster £200's though, so you might be alright if your previous one was RBS unless NW have more rigorous checking process than the other two but I wouldn't have thought so.2catsandcounting said:Day 8 and still no sign of the bonus.As I mentioned previously, I transferred £250 in and out a few times rather than the full £1250 in one go.

As above. Send them a message through the app. They usually respond in a few hours.1

Thanks I’ve done that. They’ve said that today is the 6th calendar day after meeting the conditions and that I’ll have the money tomorrow. I’m sure today is day 8, but never mind. I can wait another day!Shedman said:
