Can anyone advise how to make online debit card payments please ? I've tried to register the card on Amazon and one other site with no luck. All I get is a message to call the bank in order to verify my card.

This is despite having used the card successfully in a bricks and mortar shop.

Presumably you didn't read the sticker on the front of the debit card, it tells you precisely what you have experienced...that you have to ring the bank to enable the card for online purchases...

Same. Applied on 15/11 (as an existing Co-op Bank current account holder). Very happy with that.
Now just need to wait two months for the £50 bonus for having at least £25 in a qualifying savings account 45 days from today.

It should be less than 2 months. My confirmation email names the date until which I have to keep the £25 in the account. I have diarised March 13. Hopefully they will be as quick with this payment as they were with the switch bonus.

It will depend on you having completed the other qualification criteria. Mine were all completed one working day after the switch. My switch bonus was paid another working day thereafter.

13 March (10 March in my case) is the date on which the relevant savings account containing at least £25 needs to be open in order to qualify for the bonus. In my case that is 45 days after completion of the switch. As per the terms and conditions, the bonus should be paid within 60 days of the switch completing:

So how quickly after fulfilling the entire switch criteria have you guys received the £100? As in, once you’d made the card payments and £1000 in
