 Anyone take part in the less generous summer offer - and received their tenner yet?

I made my deposit on 23/08, so should hopefully be any day now …

Just messaged Plum CS on this too as it’s been 90 days since my account was opened but no £10 bonus credited - by my calculations 90 days (plus 10 working days as per their T&C’s) takes the due date for payment to 7th December 2023 at the latest.

I received mines about a week and a half after messaging them.

Has anyone else received a "Win £3,122 with Plum 💸" email? Seems you can get yourself entered into a prize draw by switching on various autosave options.

Fun to be had while you wait for your free £25?

Yeah, I flicked on the four rules that are included on the free plan, but a bit cautious of the one named automatic, since that seems to be the only one that doesn’t let you set your own preferred deposit amount.

Very brave, the highly trained AI algorithms with have your account emptied in no time at all. 

I've had very little to do with Plum (or autosave apps generally). My Plum is currently connected to an active current account with all autosave functionality turned off. Is it fairly easy to amend to point it at a semi-dormant current account with a couple of quid in it where it can autosave its little socks off without doing any damage?

Well I've installed the app and loaded up £500 to the 3.51 pocket (seems to be pending w/a date of tomorrow, Monday).
...

Set a calendar entry for 6mths 10days time.

Well the £25 "gift" was credited to my account on 5/04. This, plus interest plus the £500 now available for shifting to one of my shiny new cash ISAs.

Apart from flaneurs_lobster, any others got the £25 referral paid? I opened the account 16 October 2023 and I still waiting. I sent them a message last week and they said wait another week. It doesn't give me great confidence when you have to chase the referral

My wife also opened the account around the same date and still nothing

You're only just getting up to 6 months + 10 days that the offer said would be the payout deadline. I'd give it the week they suggest then get back to them.

I didn't realise it was 6 months + 10 days. I had in my head just 6 months. Thanks for the clarification:) 🙂

No worries. Here's a link to the original puff

5. The reward of £25 will be paid into each eligible participating customer’s Primary Plum Pocket, within 10 working days of the initial 6 calendar month period, after they downloaded the Plum app using our MSE partner link and successfully created their Plum profile.

I had to chase them via chat as my £25 had not arrived within 10 working days. They then credited it within 24 hours.

I’ve been chasing the MSE bonus with Plum support for nearly two weeks, they are a joke!

I said this bonus should have been applied automatically, but they tell me it has to be manually added by their marketing team. 

My wife is having the same issue with receiving her bonus also.
