    is the current £175 FD switch offer a continuation of this one that "ended" on the 22nd April, or did it end and a new one has launched?

    I've just received another bonus this is my third First Direct bonus since 2020

    Here is my history 

    1/20 received £100 from FD 

    12/22 received £200 from hsbc advance, can't remember if I was eligible, iirc I was as first one from hsbc, also £40 quidco

    6/23 applied for hsbc advance again, no bonus this time, obviously I knew I was not eligible, but still £55 from topcashback 

    12/23 applied for first direct received £175 plus £35 topcashback, iirc I was not eligible as I received a FD bonus before and also hsbc within given timeframe

    5/24, may 24 offer, First Direct they must like me as they just paid out £175 again

    All new registration/logon details each time, despite same name, address, email etc details 

    Thats £780 from hsbc group including 3 from FD

    Probably a silly question...

    If I add my new FD debit card to googlepay and use that to pay for things, does it count towards the 5 debit card transactions to get the £175?
