I have two main current accounts. Both of these offer a system of cash backs, where they offer you retailers at the start of the month, you "activate" the offer, and then you get a percentage discount when you use your bank card with that retailer.
The thing is, one always offers me a long list of retailers that I've never heard of and will never use. It does however have the very occasional useful thing in, such as 5% at Waitrose. The other offers about one retailer I've also never heard of every three months, so there's never anything to choose.
Over the last two years, one has paid £39 in total and the other £1.34.
I imagine this is the same for everybody, right? Nobody is getting wonderful offers and making hundreds a month from these promotional things, are they?
Just making sure nothing is "broken" with my accounts is all.
