    yes and yes
  • If I pay my Tesco credit card bill by debit card does it earn clubcard points? Not tried it so far, but may give it a go if it works.

    Not according to http://www.tescobank.com/current-accounts/rewards.html:
    You can't collect Clubcard points on some transactions, including payments from your current account (such as standing orders and Direct Debits), in-store cash or cheque deposits, refunds and using your debit card to pay for bills at banks or other financial institutions

    No you don't.
    What's not included?
    You can't collect Clubcard points on some transactions, including payments from your current account (such as standing orders and Direct Debits), in-store cash or cheque deposits, refunds and using your debit card to pay for bills at banks or other financial institutions.

    You can't collect Clubcard points when you use your card to get cash. This includes cashback, in-store cash withdrawals and withdrawing cash at an ATM. It also includes gambling, purchasing travel money, wire transfers and purchasing foreign currency.

    Has anyone found out whether the £750 per month means per calendar month (like most) or per anniversary of opening date month (like Santander)?

    Can't answer your question decisively as they don't seem to define what they mean by 'month'. However, the statement period starts on the day of account opening, so it is probably monthiversary.

    I am making calendar month deposits at the start of each month. In the first 30 days after opening, I had made 2 qualifying deposits - one to load the account on the 20th, and then the monthly £750 in and straight out again on the 3rd of the next calendar month.

    I've been working on calendar months for the 750 and have been charged a fiver today. I can only think their months are anniversary months. I can't find anything about what a months means in their T&Cs. Have I missed something? Will be calling them in a bit and will be very grumpy if I don't get my fiver back.
