Makro Card query

ravylesley

My daughter has her own business and has a Makro card and she's offered to let me borrow the card to do a big shop if I want to.But I'm not sure whether I could use the card in her absence or do they insist she is present as they do security checks etc.I dont want to look stupid going on my own when I can wait a few days and go with her.Can anyone help?

Hi, its ok to use relatives card at Makro. At the entrance desk you hand over the card to be swiped to check to see if it is still valid, it is handed back to you ( no questions or anything ) , you do your shop and then at the checkout you hand the card over again to swipe again. As long as you pay by cash or credit card thats it. I suppose if you wanted to pay by cheque they might notice a different name on the cheque. My Daughter uses mine and has never had any problems.Makro are not the cheapest for all shopping , I tend to just shop there for offers etc. in their brochure. * I should point out that it is ok as long as this is used at the store that it was originally registered at/ normally used at . If it is used at another store even the card holder normally has to show proof of i.d.*

she could get you an additional card in your name .

Thing to remember is that Makro prices in store are excluding VAT - VAT is added at the tills so add 15% to the price before you consider it a bargain.

You can have up to 12 cards on a single account at Makro. I got mine while chair of a school pta, and was able to get 11 other cards for staff members, other pta members who might go there. We did legitimately use it for pta functions - buying sweets, drinks, catering supplies etc. I'm glad the headteacher has let me hold onto it though - I have a large family so I do use it quite a bit for certain items.

Subject to VAT being applicable to what you are buying, of course. Basic foods are VAT free.
