The Big Nationwide Thank You
We are pleased to confirm all payments have been made and cheques have been sent.
What is The Big Nationwide Thank You?
On 1 October 2024, we completed the purchase of Virgin Money, becoming an even stronger force in UK banking. This was made possible by the financial strength Nationwide members, like you, helped us build.
To say thank you, we've given over 12 million of our Nationwide members £50 each as part of The Big Nationwide Thank You. Over £600 million in total.
Over 12 million members received a payment
£50 was paid to each eligible member
Over £600 million in total was given back to members
How did you get your £50 payment?
We paid you the £50 depending on the type of account you have with us.
Current account, instant access savings account or limited access savings account
If you have a current account with us, we will firstly try and pay the £50 into that account.
If you don't have a current account with us, we will pay it into any of your instant access accounts. If you only have a limited access account with us, we will pay it into that account.
We will pay into a joint account if you don't have a sole account with us. You should receive payment by 30 April 2025. You will still need to be a Nationwide member when we make the payment to receive it.
Cash ISAs, Fixed Rate Bonds, Child Trust Funds, Junior ISAs or accounts where the money is held in trust
The £50 payment will have been sent to you by cheque to the address we hold for you. You will have needed to be a Nationwide member when we sent the cheque.
