    Email for one of the family. Not yet for myself or OH. I presume there will be a gradual roll out.

    According to the T&Cs my wife and I are eligible, but last year only I got it despite us having joint accounts. Just logged in and no message.
    I logged in and checked in the chat as above and when I went back in, the message was there

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    I've been a member for 25 years and have used it as my main current account, but had less than £100 in savings in March, so failed to qualify.

    I feel a bit short-changed (excuse the pun).  :/

    The criteria has been the same for 3 years now, putting £100 in their regular saver purely for speculative purposes would have been easy to do. Even if it's not your main account, bouncing £500 in and out and making a couple of card payments (carrots are the cheapest I found) takes a couple of minutes of time

    For those of you who are worried you haven't received an email yet, I still haven't got mine but when I log into the app it says I'm getting my £100.
