Nationwide customers have praised the building society after millions of people started to receive £100 into their bank accounts.
The building society revealed it is handing out new Fairer Share payments after it secured record profits of £2.2billion.
The payments started on Tuesday (June 13) and will continue up until June 30, with 3.4million people set to receive the cash.
If you’re due a payment, it will appear on your bank statement as "Nationwide Fairer Share Payment".
Many rushed to Twitter to thank the building society after receiving the £100 into their accounts.

One person tweeted: “Thank you @AskNationwide - really appreciate the Fairer Share Payment of £100. Means a lot in the current cost of living crisis.”
Another said: “Thank you for the £100. Much appreciated.”
A third tweeted: “Thank you @AskNationwide for my £100 #FairerSharePayment - we’ve put it towards a well-earned holiday in the sun.”
However, not all Nationwide customers will get the payment as you need to have an eligible current account, plus either a mortgage or savings product with Nationwide.
Current accounts must have been opened on or before March 31, 2023, and still be open in June to receive the cash reward.
Other current account eligibility criteria can be found below, depending on the type of account you have.
Savings accounts will need to have had at least £100 in total in one or more accounts at the end of any day in March 2023.
This can include personal savings accounts and ISAs.
To have a qualifying mortgage, a customer must owe at least £100 on their Nationwide residential mortgage on March 31, 2023.

If you have a FlexAccount, FlexBasic or FlexDirect account, you must have paid in or received at least £500 in two of the three months of January, February and March 2023.
