    I only received 2 out of the 3 fivers today😡. Anyone else experienced this before? Hoping just a blip that’ll correct itself.

    I got 3 out of 5 so far, and only a fiver each, not the fivers for the months to anniversary. These three are very old accounts, dating back to 2015, whilst the other two were opened in 2020. I reckon /  hope they are slowly working their way through the accounts.

    Yes, Best thing is to do a quick complaint via the online form. Will take you 3 minutes to do. You will get the missing fiver credited plus some compensation (I got an extra £20). Best to do this quickly (like, today) given the imminent pay offs (you don't want to miss out on that on one of your accounts if there is a glitsch needing sorted) 
    Or you could just show a little patience and wait until tomorrow, when it will probably appear. None of mine have arrived yet, but who cares?

    If one £5 is missing but others paid, it is unlikely to sort out. Happened to me a few times in the last 5 years (or so). Tried a phone call the first couple of times time but telephone person couldn't resolve and advised online approach which brought quick resolution.  Some care, obviously.

    13th and no credit of this month's fiver yet.

    Wonder if it will all being credited together.

    Not that bothered when tho tbh as a fiver today isn't going to change my life  :)
    My £5 was deposited today 13th, but not the extra £50 I'm expecting.

    One out of three of mine is still missing, but I don't usually log in to check so I don't know how unusual that is. I've never had a payment missed before. I'm not going to rush to chase it, especially as others seem to be in the same boat.

    Between us we have five accounts. I check each one at the end of each month. No payment has ever been missed in several years, and I doubt that will be any different this month. I'm certainly not going to fuss over it.
  • No... blips are good news !
    Normally a extra £5 to £40 if you go the distance and play it right .

    Are those who are missing a £5 from one of their accounts, aware of the expiry date of the offer on that particular account? I have 2 of my 3 paid out but to me that was expected, because when they announced they were retiring the deal they also stopped anyone who had a deal coming to an end from renewing. As a result when my account reached the end of last years offer 31/08/25 I couldn't renew and therefore Sept was my last payment. The other accounts had later expiry dates and therefore got paid this month.

    Just a thought ;)
    Ah, good point. That will explain mine.

    I think you're right. I think they've removed the rewards tracker so I'm not 100% certain, but going through my messages it appears this is likely the reason. Thanks!
