How does the Scheme work?

• You must be a customer of Oakam to earn a reward from a Referral.
• In the event of a breach of these terms and conditions, Oakam reserves the right not to pay Rewards and to restrict customers’ participation in the Scheme without limitation or consultation.
• Your Reward is calculated by reference to the number of Referrals you make: please see above for details.
• Rewards will be paid to you in cash or by BACS transfer upon request.

How does the Scheme work?
