It is isn't it? But I read the T&C's and it says you have to have both a current acc & savings acc. Think we'll get him a savings acc opened as according to a news article I read, this is something NW may do again. Wondering if its there way of stopping people doing bank switching....so pay people to stay loyalLittleMissDetermined said:

Hi all and happy Saturday. Today I’m off out with my sister and my dad (he was delighted at the £100 NW news) and later we will be looking at booking the holiday.A spendy day for me, amusements at the coast, fish and chips and if the weather is nice enough maybe some ice cream. Hope the weather delivers as forecasted.
My PAD today is £3 to the EF… 6 days to pay day.That’s all from me

Have a lovely day at the coast🍦I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0

Yesterday was lovely and we had fabulous weather. I didn’t spend as much as I had budgeted so that was a bonus.
Our holiday is booked for August to Tenerife. We had the accommodation since before Covid so we just needed to book flights. It will be something to look forward to.
This mornings PAD is £3 to the EF. I’ll be adding to the cash envelopes and sealed pot later as I have cash on me.
Im at a crafting event later today where we will be making glass, very much looking forward to that too, it’s been booked for ages.
Busy day for me, hope you all have a good day
