    Nice - wonder if you can do both cahoots :-)
    I can't see anything in the offer terms that would prohibit it.

    If I'm registering for a new online banking etc then I'm after at least £50 so will try it.

    I’ve done the double Simple and Sunny.
    Both accounts open in Cahoot. 
    Hopefully both have tracked on TCB 
    let us know how you get on 

    The Simple has immediately tracked and showing the £25 pending in my TCB account 
    I did the Sunny yesterday but it’s tracking still under the Santander heading with £0 pending  so not sure about that one

    I to have opened both this morning using TCB despite already holding the same accounts with Cahoot already. Like others, only one cashback offer was tracked, which was not indicated in the T&Cs when I read them. But on this evidence I’m assuming it’s only applicable for one account cashback offer.

    Both new accounts opened instantly and visible on Cahoot website, both now sat with £1 in for potential cashback eligibility. I don’t actually intend on using these accounts, so nothing to lose for at least £25 gain, possibly £50 who knows?…

    Thanks to the OP for sharing and setting up this thread. It would be good to have a running TCB thread for such offers if there isn’t already one?

    Same here - I did both today and the Simple tracked fine (and I got a tracking email) but the Sunny is showing as Santander Edge Explorer Current Account (a TCB listing I have not visited recently if ever). I haven't had the tracking email yet but if it says the same or doesn't arrive then I'll message TCB about it. I guess there is a mix-up in their backend with the Sunny product linking.

    I've transferred £1 into both based on the sort code and account numbers in the cahoot emails but have to wait for them to send me login details.

    That's not mentioned in the terms of either offer.

    I only got 1 the tracking email on the Simple but 2 entries are showing as tracked on the TCB Earnings page although the Sunny Day is incorrectly tracked as the Edge product. Have you checked your TCB Earnings page?

    The Simple Saver terms are very specific that the restriction only applies to multiple Simple accounts "If you open more than one Cahoot Simple Saver via Top Cashback, you will only be paid cashback on the first account you open." 

    The Sunny Day Saver doesn't even contain that restriction so I guess some people might be able to get it twice - once on a single account and again with a joint account.

    Did you need to use a different email to open another sunny day saver? I hesitated as I saw the product's t&cs mentioned that it was limited to one sole and one joint account, but might as well give it a shot.

    Yes I also have one for a ‘Santander Edge Explorer’ product but with no allocated indication of cashback, which I just assumed was some sort error. Would obviously be delighted if this is amended to ‘Cahoot Sunny Day Saver’ and shows £25 cashback to be expected. Not holding my breath though….

    Cahoot:
    No.
    This makes 4 each for my wife and myself. A couple of joint ones aswell. Same email & mobile number on all of them.
