    Does anyone know if you get discount in the high street just by showing your badge?

    I was in Dorothy Perkins the other day and heard a customer asking if she can get discount as she was a teacher when the cashier said no the customer said that NHS staff can get it so why can't teachers.

    I didn't know NHS staff can do this, is this correct????

    Have used my nhs badge at Burtons a few times , but tried last week and told by the , manager that they no longer give discount to nhs staff.Asked him why and he said "they just dont".
    Think he'd just had a bad day though , grumpy !!!!!!
    The truth shall set you free.....................
  • My local Cinema (Red Cinema in The Lowry Outlet Mall) gives discount to NHS staff i used to always use my badge to save money so maybe other cinema's do to.
  • yeah i tried in evans and burtons and was told they had stopped nhs discount too and they have stopped nus discount also.
  • 10% off line rental on all contracts and upgrades in orange shops too (see https://www.orange.co.uk/perk) :)
  • some discounts are via nhsdiscounts.com, some are through local arrangements, my trust uses redguava, but some are local incentives even in big name shops, if I dont know they do or dont, I just ask when paying. Both my local cinemas will give nhs staff student rates.
  • Hi,
    I believe some NHS staff qualify for free or discounted bus travel - if you contact your admin dept, they should tell you what discounts you can get on public transport. My trust offers free bus travel,which saves me around £25 p/w :rolleyes: sorry if this has already been posted, im a newbie!

    NHS gold card also gives discounts at most Toni and Guy salons. Just recieved my pack yesterday as i'm a new starter. Seem to be lots of discounts at beauty salons etc too.

  • If you are a teacher and belong to a union, they very often offer specific discounts to a union member. You get 10% off at Dorothy Perkins with my teaching union.
