You can currently get £25 from Quidco or £26.25 TCB if you apply using their sites.

I can corfirm an extra 0.5% cashback can be earned by paying the asda monthly bill online using a nationwide select card. I've done this a couple of time now and earned the cashback without any additional charges.

TCB must have dropped £1 overnight haha..for a 25p diff i've gone for QC, as i find them more reliable and less hassle.. but get this:
"We've encountered a problem with your application.
Your application for the Asda Money Credit Card is important to us, so please try again later or call us on 0371 402 8914. We are open:...."
i don't want it as a spending card, just an easy £25 while my file is messy and doesn't matter

I experienced that same error applying for the Asda card on my first attempt; waited a couple of days then second time it worked okay.

The TCB cashback is £26.25 presumably only for premium members; it's £25.25 for me as I don't pay. Mine has just changed from tracked to declined today, so I'll have to raise a claim.

i see. certainly was showing as £25.25 for me.
i understand it that you have the Asda card successfully, but that the cashback has been declined on TCB.
no good for me with either card, but i guess my file is looking stretched at the moment, and i was only looking for easy cashback.

i seem to have bagged the Asda card afterall, as i've received a PIN today.. so will claim £25 via QC when i have the card number.
QC saying my £25 is due for Nationwide Select c2nd May, and there should be £25 from Nationwide too.
and HSBC paid out £25 and closed. it is paid to current account rather than credit card, which is nice.

Got my £25 for the Asda card shortly after it was initially declined; my claim went payable in just a few days!
