Customers joining Classic Plus can earn up to £164 in their first year

 
TSB’s Classic Plus account is already one of the best current accounts available and from today, customers can earn up to £10 a month in cashback just for doing their day-to-day banking. 
 
New customers opening a TSB Classic Plus account will be rewarded with £5 for making 20 debit card payments within a month plus an extra £5 if they make at least two direct debits each month.  That’s a total of £120 for the year.  Designed to give new customers a great start with TSB, the cashback offer will run until the end of 2018.
 
In addition, Classic Plus also comes with 3% AER credit interest on balances up to £1,5001 – that means customers can earn up to £44 in credit interest over a year if they have £1,500 in their account at all times.  All for no monthly fee. 
 
This offer follows on from the popular Classic Plus offer launched in March 2017 with customers earning over £4 million in cashback last year. 
 
Craig Bundell, TSB’s Director of Personal Current Accounts, says:  “As Britain’s challenger bank, it’s our mission to make banking better for all UK customers and this new offer is another example of that. 
 
“Classic Plus is already one of the best current accounts available in the UK and our £10 monthly cashback offer proved so popular last year.  It’s great to be able to give even more customers a warm welcome to TSB in 2018.”
