However, students are being warned to act fast as it is a ‘limited-time offer.’ To get the money, you need to open a FlexStudent account and meet all Nationwide’s eligibility criteria.

Students will receive the £100 within 14 calendar days of crediting £500 to their FlexStudent account, which must be done by 15 December 2023.
