  • can you add cash to your card via internet/telephone banking. dont like the idea to have to queue at customer services to add cash on.

    You can add funds by on-line bank transfer, cash, direct debit, or cheque. (Cheques are no use as they take about 7 days to go on and the direct debit can take 3 days before it goes onto the card)


    I have just set up a transfer from my bank Account to my Clubcard Plus card and the money has gone onto my CC+ immediately. Didnt know I could add funds via this way, So thanks to iamsam.

    Why not just put cash on by online bank transfer (the CC+ acc no./sort code should be on a statement)? I also have a Tesco internet savings account (got for the free points), and keep a modest overflow in there at a not-too-terrible rate of interest. I can instantly shuffle money between the two online. Presumably with faster payments, this can be done near-instantly from other banks.

    Thanks to all who've posted for this, I've obviously been missing out on loads, but am now starting to get my act together in relation to Tesco. Phoned up for an application form for clubcard plus today, thats a start.

    Clubcard Plus accounts even without the overdraft require a credit check :mad:

    I dont understand why they can do a debit card that doesnt require a credit check Grrrrrrrrr

    Is it just me, or are Tesco cutting back on the extra point vouchers? I have 2 clubcard accounts and the one I spent less on only had money off vouchers with the statement and today I got my wine club mailing which usually has at least 200 extra points when you buy various wines but the only extra point voucher was for online shopping - the rest were 25p or 50p off. What's going on?!!?

    I enquired after the above card. It's basically a debit card (Tesco said) so you don't have to worry about credit checks etc. You get double points for the amount you spend on the card. If you need the pay any difference for shopping via amount method ie. cash, visa etc you will go back to getting one point. Too much hassle I thought.

    The only hassle - Not - is deciding which Clubcard Deals to spend your points on.

    Ive only had my card for one month and ive got over £50 worth of Deals already. :j Thats £600 cashback per year for us:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
