£100 payment - Nationwide Fairer Share

1212224262740

Comments

  • I wonder how many of the posters who have said that they will leave Nationwide,due to this scheme, actually will 🤔

    After all, to still be with them in the first place suggests an affinity to the society imo 🤝

    I am fortunate enough to be receiving this payout, however, by no stretch of the imagination can Nationwide be deemed my "main account". I have double digits of current accounts and savings accounts, each with their own definitive purpose 🤷‍♂️

    Had it not been for the supermarket spend promotion, I would have missed out due not meeting spend criteria 🛒

    Will be interesting to see what retrospective criteria will be used in any future "Fairer Share" payouts 💷

    Both me and my husband got a letter from nationwide about the £100 payment.
    As we have a joint current account and joint savings assumed we would receive 1 payment 🙂
    Same! Was delighted to even get one, but one each - just in time for holiday!

    I cannot really leave until mid 2025, as I have a fixed rate mortgage. I assume there are savers with fixed rate products in a similar position. Until then I've shown my protest by withdrawing all but 1p from my current and savings accounts.

    You could have opened a C/A And just left £1 in it!

    Thanks, so 30 years loyalty doesnt count , yet in the past when a wanted a loan was told as a loyal customer we can help. ***** Liars!.

    I can play the loyalty game so I'll move bank and get a cash back.

    It would be a good idea to read the T&C's for the eligibility criteria...

    A current account with £1 in it wouldn't help.

    If that was directed at me, I have a current account. The problem is that although I paid in over £1,500 between January and March I did not meet the 'deposit £500 in two out of three months' criteria.
