Does anybody know if you can have a Santander Everday current account to get the TCB money if you already have an Edge Up current account?

Should not be a problem.

Just opened the Santander S&S ISA with £100 and the £75 cashback tracked within around 10 mins.

In the advanced options you can select a money market fund so no need to take much risk with your money.

Seems to use the same login details as normal Santander online banking.

Did I miss out on this one? I can't see it listed as an option on TCB.

As for the other comments on Nutmeg, I've made a lot of money and Avios out of them over the years, but even with the fees I negotiated with them, they are still very much 'pump and dump'...

It was available last weekend but seemed to disappear from TCB on Monday. I missed it too!

TopCashback’s £25 offer for opening a Cahoot Simple Saver is a decent little freebie if you’re into stacking cashback deals. It’s a straightforward savings account from Santander’s digital brand, with easy access and no complicated terms. Just make sure you follow the tracking steps correctly through TopCashback to ensure the bonus tracks and pays out. For anyone who doesn’t already have a Cahoot account, it’s an easy way to pocket a bit of extra cash while setting up another spot to park savings — always nice when the signup pays you back!

I’ve just received the following email from TCB 

“Hello there, 

We can see you have recently clicked through Cahoot Sunny Day Saver and your cashback has not tracked. However, we wanted to make you aware that due to an error on our side, your cashback has tracked under Santander Edge® Explorer current account. 

We are not able to amend the retailer that your cashback has tracked with, but we wanted to reach out to assure you that this detail should not affect the progress of your cashback. 

Your cashback should uplift to the expected amount once the status updates to confirmed status. Should the cashback not uplift when reaching confirmed status, please get back in touch via this support ticket and we will be able to advise you further. 

We hope this helps reassure you and if you do have any questions in the meantime, please don't hesitate to reach out.”

Very impressed given that I hadn't even raised it with them and they've contacted me.

I've got the same TCB email - great service indeed.

In all the years of using TCB and thousands of pounds they have paid me then I can't recall any cashback issue that has failed to be resolved eventually - they really are the top cashback site to use.

Agreed on that, they've told me on multiple occasions that they have paid me out of their own funds because of retailer issues - admittedly I'm getting close to a 5 figure lifetime cashback total from them (some very big ones from hotels.com) so I'm guessing they have made a reasonable amount from my activity over the years.

Back on topic, I managed to get the Cahoot link to work and opened both accounts - the first is pending at £25, and the second pending at £0, so will have to see if it uplifts.

Still annoyed about missing the S&S ISA offer.

Yes.  I have two Edges and opening Everyday tracked £20.

My Sunny Day Saver application is showing as Santander Edge and £0 but as already said, TCB have been very proactive about acknowledging that there is an issue there. I added a Simple Saver application last night and that has already tracked - correctly - at £25. 

Just waiting on my login details and I'll then stick a small amount in each so they are funded - I can then take my time to decide how I go about using either - or possibly both - going forwards.

It's funny how, despite being very clearly labelled as a paperless account, they still want to send login details through the post! But like you, I'm going to wait for them until I fund either account. Might do the Santander current account too, just for the extra £20.

I'm holding off on that one currently as it also gives an option to earn a £100 Amazon voucher for using the debit card a set number of times over 60 days - I'd like to make use of that, but having just switched my current sacrificial account over to TSB, I'm going to be well occupied with debit card transactions over the next few months! I think I'll chance hanging on to see if there is anything still available once I'm done with the TSB thing!
