Tesco Loophole: Free Kaspersky

Options
My Kaspersky anti-virus licence expired yesterday. When I clicked through the message it opened the Kaspersky website where the renewal for one user for one year was £32.

A quick search on the internet revealed that Tesco sell instore the equivalent 'Kaspersky Internet Security 2010' package for £19.

On top of that they are including 500 reward points as well as the current double points offer. Potentially this equates to £20 of rewards! So I bought it and got one year of the best (i think) anti-virus out there free plus £1 profit.



The offer of 500 extra points ends on the 20 Dec. Even if your licence has not yet expired, it is worth buying it now to use later as the licence key will last throughout 2010.

  • If prefer Kaspersky to MS you can also get it free from here http://www.personal.barclays.co.uk/BRC1/jsp/brccontrol?site=pfs&task=homefreegroup&value=10662&target=_self&WT.ac=coukinfvirus

    The downside is you have to be a Barclays customer :(
  • Thanks OP. Will definitely do this deal. Kaspersky is by far the best out there. A contact of mine had a virus some years ago which affected everyone in his address book except me because Kaspersky bounced the email straight back to him.

    Thank you thank you. I didn't know this but now have it fully up and running. I already get RAC, mobile insurance, travel insurance and other stuff for their monthly fee, didn't know I got this as well!

    Very pleased,thanks! :beer:
    I am firmly across the line. I won't impose my values on you if you keep away from mine.
