Cashback from Barclays blue?

Yes, glad to say my one attempt has reached the pending stage. I can start to use this card more regularly now.
Great news, hope everyone gets their cashback too.

That's an interesting idea, be surprised if it were to be accepted as a "purchase" rather than a simple funds transfer. 

If it works then there are several other banks that have these kind of bill splitter function.

Giving it a go as Halifax seems to consider it valid for reward account and “spending “ 500

My Starbucks and Costcutter spends are both now pending

For enquiring minds: to no great surprise a cheeky card payment to HL Active Savings doesn't seem to have qualified, it's probably covered by the Cash Payments exclusion

I've paid £200 into my NS&I Direct Saver account using my Barclays debit card. It's gone through on the Barclays system as "debit card purchase". In 7 days, I will be able to bring the money back from NS&I. In the meantime, it earns a reasonable rate of interest in the Direct Saver. Same system has been used for two Halifax Reward accounts (£500 each per month). All part of the merry money go-round.

Edited to add: if this doesn't work, I'll do it different in November. I came to this late, middle of October already, so difficult to achieve "normal" debit card spending up to £200 this month. Plus I look to do my supermarket and petrol/travel spending on Santander Edge card for 1% cashback

It is a DC purchase

DC does work for Halifax Rewards but will it work for Barclays Cash Rewards?

If it does please let us know, I am sure it will be wildly popular

For anyone curious, debit card payments to credit cards don’t seem to yield any results. Not a big surprise but still worth checking given the vagueness of the exclusions.

I used my card for various transactions - some using debit card online, others using contactless/apple pay. Only £1.31 has tracked from a total spend of over £50. All transactions went out the same day on statement. Anybody had similar issues?

£10 cashback is available to redeem  , bought a £200 Tesco gift card in our local shop on Wednesday. That was quick!
