Nationwide Launches £175 Switching Bonus for New Current‑Account Customers

Nationwide ties the offer to strict switching deadlines with defined deposit and debit‑card activity.

Overview

  • The offer applies to switches into FlexPlus, FlexDirect or FlexAccount from non‑Nationwide current accounts.
  • The switch must complete within 28 days with at least two Direct Debits moved from the old account.
  • Within 31 days of the request, customers must deposit £1,000 and make a debit‑card purchase, with some transaction types excluded and transfers from other Nationwide accounts or Visa credits not counting.
  • Prior Nationwide switch‑bonus recipients since 2021 are excluded, internal switches do not qualify, and joint switches receive a single £175 payment with a limited sole‑to‑joint exception.
  • The reward should arrive within 10 days after all criteria are met and will show as "Switching Offer", though Nationwide reserves the right to change or end the promotion with protections for already‑requested switches.
