Nationwide FlexDirect referal bonus

Hi,
I had a Nationwide FlexDirect account a few years back, my neighbor refereed me, so I think we both got £100, I kept the account open for a year as you get 5% interest on £2,500 for the first 12 moths, after that it drops to 1%, so I closed it.
In October I can apply for another one, does anyone know if I ask my neighbor to refer me again, will we both get the £100 again? If not what is I ask someone else to refer me?
Sometimes they do 1 referral bonus for your name at your address, I didn't know if that was the case with Nationwide FlexDirect, does anyone know?

Thanks

Steve

    You're not hoping to get the 5% interest rate for another year are you? That little avenue of pleasure was cut off some time ago:cool:

    I'd like to read that. Do you have a link please.
  • If I refer my husband and he switches our joint account to Nationwide (I'm already a Nationwide account holder), can we get the referral fee?
