    The offer is now live on the website. The switched account needs to have 2DDs and can benefit from the offer if you’ve switched since 18 August 2021. Lots of other terms but those were the ones that stood out to me.

    Incorrect! Anyone who has benefited from switch since August 21 is Excluded.( Unfortunately)

    I think it was more a typo tbh

    Anyway, I received a £125 switch reward on 7 Sep 2021, so that rules me out. (As do most switches now tbf)

    Yes, may well be typo but needs clarified nonetheless.👍

    Same. I did try it on as an existing member in May of this year hoping I might fall through the net, but was unsuccessful

    I've tried the last few incentives they've run, knowing I should be ineligible for all of them - no success either.

    But what about

    “You can get £175 by switching to a FlexPlus, FlexDirect or FlexAccount. 

    If you already have one of these bank accounts, you can still switch over your non-Nationwide bank account and get £175  if you log in to our internet bank. You'll still need to meet the other qualifying criteria for the offer.”

    I still have a flex account as my main bank account so im confused if im eligible or not?

    Having an existing account is OK  as long as you fulfil the criteria.

    You can switch in to an existing account and benefit from the bonus, subject to all the other conditions (including the exclusion if you've had a bonus since August 2021).

    Were the accounts you previously benefitted on a bonus on still open? Every claim I've seen of multiple payments have occurred when the person closed down the account they received a bonus on some time ago.
