Marks and Spencer credit card - 500 bonus points

Dear all

I took out a Marks and Spencer credit card 2 years ago following the article from Martin regarding 0% interest for a year

I cleared the entire balance at the end of the term and am doing the same with another card now

This means my Marks and Spencer card is in my drawer, not being used

However, twice in the last year, to encourage me to use my card, Marks and Spencer have sent me a voucher worth 500 points to spend in store

500 points is worth £5.00, so the upshot is I have had a free £10.00 to spend in Marks and Spencer over the last 12 months

So, if you took out the card like I did and now no longer actively use it, don't forget to check the vouchers sent every few months

Best wishes!

    Me too, I love the M&S card for that.
    Their latest offering to me was 2000 points if I open up their savings account and put £10,000 in it just for one day. I'm sure I can get that kind of money together for one day if it gets me 2000 points.
    You're spelling is effecting me so much. Im trying not to be phased by it but your all making me loose my mind on mass!! My head is loosing it's hair. I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.
