so by having 2 seperate account and not merging, I will have 2 sets of vounchers.

That means I cant use all of them for my one holiday? I.e. only one set of vounchers for one holiday. (otherwise people would be buying off their freinds vounchers and have a grand holiday!!!)

each set of vouchers will have your surname on them so you can combine them on the same holiday booking.

as for topping up at CS desk, that's a training fault. Not only can you top up clubcard plus at CS desk, but also deposit into Tesco savings accounts, which is exactly the same process. They push their savings accounts enough, so they should be able to do exactly the same with clubcard plus.

You can only get your hands on the points by merging the accounts...depends how important those points are to you;)

Not strictly true. What I do and have had success in doing so is requesting Goldsmiths vouchers for all my points accumulated on each of my 16 clubcards each quarter and each year I send them back in one go, to Tesco's stating that I don't want to buy anything from Goldsmiths anymore and could they transfer the vouchers back onto my account (I state which account number in the letter).

I then get all the points from 16 accounts transfered onto 1 account, easy!!!

I have been doing this for a number of years now and have never had any problems.

oh my...16 mailings!! I think thats a step too far!!

I want to go on eurostar to paris from london - to do that it costs £25 worth of tesco vouchers.

How can I use my mother's vouchers which sums up to £5, if I only have £20 in vouchers?

My mother has the same surname on the voucher except that she has a different intial e.g. E Smith whereas I am N Smith and she has a different clubcard account number on the voucher.

I would order Goldsmith vouchers as they only come with just the surname on them and return them to tescos on your account and reorder your eurostar tickets. If you do this now then you would only be able to order after November when you next get your vouchers.

Asked for the application form today. No doubt I'll get refused but no harm trying .. this month anyway! :rotfl:

Rang up sunday for an application form, nothing yet, only 3 working days though.

Is there a pull off card you can use whilst your application is going through or do you just fill in the form and wait for your card before you can use it ?.

useless

I've just got the application form for the Clubcard Plus card and wondered if anyone can help me with a few questions....?

When using money off vouchers and extra points vouchers, I hand my Clubcard over at the same as the vouchers, and then later hand over my cash/debit card to pay.
Do you hand the Clubcard Plus card over at the same time as the vouchers (as it replaces the Clubcard)???

Should I put my existing Clubcard number on the Application Form?

If I keep the two accounts - both clubcard and clubcard plus - do I get two mailings?

Presumably if I phone up Tescos for something, e.g. to report that a mailing hasn't arrived, as often happens, they will see that I have two accounts (Clubcard and Clubcard Plus) under the same name???? and they will merge them???

Many thanks for your help!!

I think you hand over your clubcard plus at the beginning of the shop - i am new to this mind - only had mine this week - and they swipe it. At end of shop I was asked if I wanted to pay via this method or via another method.

I have kept my original clubcard for when I don't use my clubcard plus, they said to keep it. I was a dope and put my clubcard down on the application form and merged it!!! So I am going to get another clubcard so I can get extra vouchers as I understand (now ) that you do get two mailings!

i expect someone else will answer rest of questions!

Does this mean you can hand over your Club Card + to get double points and still pay by a different method ?.

How do you cope with 16 cards? I have enough trouble juggling 3.
My m-i-ls card I use once each week with one of the mailing coupons because they come now with your name and card number.
I've just joined all of my cards to all of the clubs, a week or so before the quater finished to allow plenty of time before the end of the November quater. This was fine until 4 mailings from the baby clubs arrived in the space of 2 weeks so now I have about 20 of these extra points coupons to wade through at the same time as one mailing from the wine club and one from the food club
