Nationwide is reminding customers that its FlexStudent current account promotion, which offers up to £220 in free bonuses, will be withdrawn at 11.59pm tonight, Thursday, October 22.
The world's largest building society said qualifying members could claim £100 cash alongside £120 worth of vouchers. The offer is aimed at first-year university students, and Nationwide said the account "has quickly become a popular choice among freshers across the UK".
What the FlexStudent account includes
The package includes an interest and fee-free arranged overdraft of up to £1,000 in the first year, rising to £2,000 in year two and £3,000 in the third year. To be eligible for these overdraft increases, students must deposit a minimum of £500 each term or have transferred at least £1,500 across two or more transactions during the previous year.
The account also offers commission-free spending and cash withdrawals when travelling overseas.
How to secure the cash reward and vouchers
To qualify for the bonus, students must open a new FlexStudent account before the cut-off date, deposit at least £500, and complete five debit card transactions by December 11, 2026, as reported by the Mirror.
Customers meeting these criteria will receive £100 within 14 days. Successful applicants will also be given a registration code allowing them to claim a £10 Just Eat voucher code each month throughout the first 12 months, amounting to £120 in vouchers in total.
Transition to FlexGraduate
FlexStudent account holders will gain exclusive access to FlexGraduate, a post-university current account offering an interest-free, fee-free arranged overdraft designed to assist students as they transition after university, providing them with breathing space to pay off their overdraft following the completion of their course.
Fred Powell, Head of Product at Nationwide Building Society, said: "The FlexStudent offer has proved hugely popular with students this year. With the incentives ending soon, we're reminding anyone who wants to benefit from the offer to apply before the deadline."
