Nationwide Flexdirect and Savers

NW is now offering 5% interest on a new current a/c plus 5% on a Flexclusive Regular Saver.

These need to be applied for with some personal info.

Does anyone wonder why they make us jump through hoops here?

Is it to audit their account holders to weed out dubious a/cs or just to buy more new customers?

Since it's first year only at 5%, it will probably be to make sure you were not a previous holder of the account in the last 12 months.
Also applies if you were a joint account holder.

It drops to 1% after a year but that is still higher than the 0.75% Loyalty Saver.

These new a/cs probably get you agreeing to a credit check which might help them sort the wheat from the chaff?
