If you mean non-Amex issued cards then definitely Lloyds TSB Avios and, I believe, MBNA

Interesting question - my wife has a card on my BA AmEx, but as we've both got individual Lloyds AmEx cards I didn't bother registering her BA AmEx card in case it didn't work....
It does seem pretty bad that there are no outlets in Edinburgh/Northern Ireland - there do seem to be quite a few in London but not all of the retailers that lead to £5 being awarded seem to be on the map, so probably worth registering anyway....

I registered both mine and my partners - but not tried out both yet. I'm sure I read somewhere online that you could register both card holders - but can't find that reference anymore. I'm not sure if both cardholders get the £5 credit for the same store. The T&Cs only say 1 credit per card per statement (which does sound like both cards should get the credit - but I do suspect it is more likely 1 credit per account per store).

If it's similar to the foursquare deal, it's per card. So between my wife and I we have 6 cards (supplements included)
I did a test purchase on Friday, will try another tomorrow with my wife's card.

I've done some more spending on the card. There is no need to use foursquare and checking in etc.. Just register your card and spend.
I use the foursquare app to see who's participating in the offer but don't bother checking in, which is nice as it was a real hassle.

I received an email within 10 mins of swiping my card confirming the cash back. Not appeared on my statement yet but I'm confident it will, they always have before with these types of offers, as long as you get the email or foursquare confirmation.

Not yet. I had a transaction on 1 Nov but no credit yet. They do say between 3-5 days. So far I've had an email confirmation each time I've used my card at an eligible retailer (and some I didn't even realise the offer was valid at).
