    Ive had the letter of ASDA today, fortunately I have an Nationwide card with cash back. I won't be using the ASDA card anymore.

    Does anyone know whether these vouchers can be used to buy petrol at Asda

    Yes, just opened my letter today. I used to shop at Asda regularly, which is why I took the card out in the first place. I'm now an Aldi convert, so Asda vouchers not much use to me. I found it very useful - I have a Santander 123 credit card that pays cashback on purchases at supermarkets, fuel stations, train tickets and department stores - but I used the Asda card for purchases that didn't fall in to any of those categories.

    With an average Asda card spend of £1500 a month, I was getting about £7.50 in cashback, or £90 a year - better than a slap in the face with a wet haddock, but not worth making a special trip to Asda for each month. Does anyone know if there's a time limit to spending the vouchers? (I wouldn't mind a special trip for ninety quids-worth of booze just before Christmas).

    Humph.

    No they don't allow use of the vouchers for fuel purchase I'm afraid.

    No expiry date on the cashback accumulated but once you request a voucher, you only have 28 days to use the voucher.

    Is the voucher on a physical gift card or is is a paper voucher to print out?
