    Mine has arrived too! Can someone remind me what I need to do from now for the £75? 
    Use your debit card at least 5 times each month, deposit £500 per month and have 2 active DDs.
    I sussed that out today as I wasn't going to bother with the hassle but it is so simple to get another £75 

    I have done my first £500 in and back out plus £10 withdrawn from the atm so only 4 more withdrawals this month

    Note: withdrawing cash from an ATM with your debit card doesn't count for one of the 5 transactions. It has to be a transaction.

    Thanks I didn't spot that 

    Looks like 5 coffees then or split my small amount of grocery shopping into bits

    If you have Sky you can part pay your bill online in £2 chunks. I used to do this for a previous offer with (I think) co-op. I wouldn’t suggest doing the full 20 this way as it takes a while but it’s at least an option to get to the 20 if you’re close (and have Sky!).

    I am now hoping to get the £75.00.  I pay my council tax each month in two instalments using the debit card and pay my credit cards off with other banks by using the debit card.  Provided I make it up to 5 per month I assume I should be ok. 
  • Bonus received 2 days ago :)  Just the hoops to go through now for the £75 in September...  I got two of these as I switched one in my wife's name so double bubble ;)

    Remember also to pay in £500 (or more) each calendar month from 1 April to 30 September, and keep two direct debits showing on the account until 30 September (both required in addition to the 5 monthly debit card transactions for the £75 additional bonus),

    As you are managing to make 5 debit card transactions a month for the £75 bonus, you could aim to get an additional £5 payment each month if you can make it up to 20 debit card transactions in the calendar month. I'm using the debit card on my new TSB account for "petty cash" expenditure like newspapers etc (big supermarket and petrol spending goes on my Santander Edge account debit card for 1% cashback). The monthly £5 payment last for 6 months from opening the new TSB account,

    You might want to wait until you get another £55 / £75. Also do not waste your DDs in the current accounts. This could be a dummy account for another switch which requires minimum 2DDs.
