  • Lot of hassle for a tenner for a couple of months. After reading the comments in this thread, I didn't bother with it. Life's too short.
    I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.

    You need to be careful of perception errors; it's been no hassle for me or I suspect most people.

    £10 earned in October without hassle. November on track but early days.

    My November £10 has already been in my current account for a couple of days 
  • Yeah no hassle for me either

    I suspect the majority of people taking advantage of this offer have just signed up, used their card and taken the money. That's not hassle - it's money for old rope.

  • £200 PayPal to OH Paypal using debit card details worked for me - £10 in rewards today  B)
    Was this Friends & Family and how long did it take to track?
  • FYI I used my debit card for a couple hundred quid of train tickets on LNER for the specific 8% cashback and I can see the £20 or so marked as "Earned" in the Pending section as I would expect.

    However, this spending unexpectedly has also triggered the £10 for November to pay out. So it seems to be double dip on the specific retailer cashback. Not sure if that is helpful to anyone but I'm not a particular debit card spender at all so I'm pleased to move out the remaining money I had in the account to spend this month and go back to my Amex until December.
  • Made a £200 deposit by debit card into NS&I direct saver on Wed. Cashback tracked this morning when the debit card transaction cleared. Fairly impressed!

    Interesting. I did an experimental £10 DC payment to Skipton which hasn't tracked.
