Nationwide to give away free £280 bonuses - but only for certain customers
Nationwide, the world's largest building society, has announced plans to offer a group of customers up to £280 each in free bonuses. On Tuesday, July 1, it was revealed that some new members will receive £100 cashback, as well as £120 in vouchers, and up to £60 more for referrals.
The building society is reintroducing these incentives with its FlexStudent current account, aimed at first-year university students. According to Nationwide, this account "attracted more than a quarter of the student current account market last year". It offers an interest and fee-free arranged overdraft of up to £1,000 in the first year, £2,000 in the second year, and £3,000 in the third year, along with commission-free purchases and cash withdrawals abroad.
To qualify for these incentives, students must apply for a FlexStudent account from today and deposit £500 by December 2025, such as the first instalment of a student loan. The £100 cashback will be received within 14 days of the money being deposited into the account.
Eligible accounts will also receive a £10 Just Eat voucher code every month for the first 12 months of the account being open. These can be used online and access will be provided within 14 days of the student becoming eligible, reports the Express.
Students can also pocket an extra £40 in vouchers for bringing two mates on board, netting £20 each, while the mate nabs a cool £20 too.
Exclusive to those with a FlexStudent account is access to FlexGraduate, a bespoke current account tailored for post-uni life, featuring an interest-free, fee-free arranged overdraft "designed to help students find their feet after university, allowing them time to pay off their overdraft once their course has finished".
Savvy students could snag up to £280 in bonuses through the account: nabbing £20 when a pal refers them, plus getting £100 cashback, scooping £120 of Just Eat Vouchers, and for every duo of pals they successfully refer, bagging 2x £20 Just Eat vouchers.

Tesla Model Y Lease Deal, July Much like its Model 3 sibling, the Model Y also received a few updates for the 2025 model year and some rather attractive lease deals for July. The lease deals vary depending on which model you choose and how much money you put down, but they seem to be nationwide. Always check Tesla's website yourself for potential personalized offers. 0:08 / 0:09 Rivian R1T delivers on this EV feature that Tesla forgot Watch More The Model Y Long Range RWD can be leased for $399 per month for 36 months with a $3,000 down payment and 10,000 miles per year. The Long Range AWD model gets higher monthly cost of $499 for 36 months, with a down payment of $3,000 and a 10,000-mile annual limit. The down payments can be adjusted for lower monthly payments, but there are limits depending on the model you choose. To sweeten the deal even more, you may also be eligible for the $7,500 Tesla incentive, along with a $1,000 off Military, First Responder, Teacher, and Student offer, or a $1,000 Tesla Credit and $1,000 cash from Lyft for verified Lyft drivers. 2025 Tesla Model Y — Source: Tesla Would you rather have $0 down? Potential lessees who want to save money on the upfront costs can pay $0 at signing, with some adjustments to the monthly payment. We have estimated the monthly payments by spreading the amount at signing over the lease's term. Given the equal down payment, all models would carry an extra ~$83 per month. The Model Y Long Range RWD would get a total estimated monthly payment of $482, while the Long Range AWD would increase to $582. What do you get in the newest Tesla Model Y Long Range? The 2025 refresh, dubbed 'Juniper,' received a full-width light bar in the form of daytime running lights and taillights, as well as a rear 8-inch passenger touchscreen. The front infotainment screen is the same 15.4-inch one and still lacks Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The Long Range models are now rated at 357 miles for the RWD poewrtrain and 327 miles for the AWD one. As for charging times, the Model Y Long Range AWD can add up to 169 miles in 15 minutes, whereas the RWD can add up to 182 miles in 15 minutes. Strangely, the top speed of the non-performance Model Y variants was reduced from 135 mph to 125 mph, but 0-60 mph times are still impressive, at 5.4 seconds for the RWD and 4.6 seconds for the AWD. Thankfully, due to customer complaints, Tesla kept the traditional turn signal stock. Tesla Model Y — Source: Tesla Given its size, the Model Y does a pretty good job at holding people and cargo, with seating for up to 5 adults and 76 cu. ft. of cargo space. The Model Y Long Range RWD starts at $44,990 while the Long Range AWD jumps to $48,990.
