Just had the confirmation letter through the post, using very high quality paper and envelope it must be said 😏

I got a letter about it but it was in a plain white envelope not like this. 

Mrs Z-man and I got one of each - the fancy looking one (me) and the plain white envelope one (her). Maybe they didn't order enough of one, or one is from the left-overs from old stationery and they're changing to the new one.

NB Both had (before anyone asks) the current branding/logo that some on here love to hate!

I'm sure I have everything I can set to "paperless please" and I don't receive paper statements for example. NW have already told me my happy news by both app push and email. I know they won't be paying "normal" postage for these letters but even so the cost (both financial and environmental) of sending out hardcopies seems wasteful. 

As far as I can see (in the app) we're set to paperless for everything too. But that doesn't necessarily stop them posting out unusual stuff like this. I agree it's both utterly wasteful and utterly unnecessary as we've had emails and app push already.

Totally agree, wasteful and unnecessary.

I think it was Barclays where I ticked a box in the app to go paperless and they sent me a letter confirming my choice!

Things like that are pretty standard security measure - just in case someone did it without your knowledge so you're alerted. Even an email could be compromised remotely.

My £100 Fairer Share Payment was deposited into my FlexDirect account this morning

Got mine too. Happy days 
Also voted against the board yesterday in the upcoming AGM. Very satisfying.

I seem to have received 2!
I can't see any reason why this would be the case, is it simply an administrative error and I should expect to see one of the payments backed out, should I contact someone or is there something I missed which might make me eligible for a second payment?

Was it a joint account? If so, were both members eligible?

(My wife and I both received a payment this morning.)

That will be it.  Thank you.
I thought it was one payment per eligible account(s), I didn't realise it was per person.

I have a FlexPlus joint account with £100 added this morning as my partner wasn't eligible. Should I therefore treat it as a £100 payment from Nationwide to me, or £50/£50 as it's a joint account?
