NatWest reward account - how quickly can I take the 1250 payment out?

Can any NatWest rewards regulars in here answer a question? You have to pay in 1250 a month to qualify for rewards, but does it have to stay in for 24 hours like it does when doing their switch bonus, or can it go out again same day?

I pay in between £3-4 k on the first of the month, and it's all paid out to regular savers within an hour. The balance usually remains at under £100, and never had a problem qualifying for rewards.

I transfer mine from Chase as soon as it's sent I log on to Natwest and send it back to Chase, so for me about a minute (I do £750 a day over two days)

Mine's in and out within minutes, the same goes for the other reward accounts I've had.

Depends how quickly you can log in and make the payment. Unless you're trying it about 2am, when NatWest do their overnight stuff

Haha thanks. I meant will they still give me the reward if I don't leave it in for 24 hours 😁 replies suggest it's fine, so it's better back in my edge saver.

They've been giving me the reward for over 3 years and I've never kept the money in the current account for long so you should be fine.

The switch incentive is completely different to the on-going rewards and the terms of one don't affect the other. As above, there's no minimum time needed to keep the money in the account to be eligible for the rewards. I've got my payments in/out automated by standing order on the same day, so the money is only in the account for a few hours at most.
