Norwich and Peterborough have been running the same deal for a while now with such a restriction (£500 pm for the 'Gold' or 5 transactions a month for the 'Gold Light'). Although it wouldn't be that difficult, the hassle of circumventing this has been enough to deter an advantage-taker such as myself thus far....
