Rac Membership - A Great Deal?

  • I recommend you join the CSMA if possible. To be eligible you must have a relative (or friend) who is already a member or be a civil servant (or other qualifying occupation). At the moment, membership is free. Once you are a member, Brittania Rescue is £49.50.

    My wife shops at tesco and i keep telling her about these deals and that she should use her points.
    But. She says that she doesnt get points, she gets vouchers in the post. many of which are no use to her.

    Is this right? or does she have the points and is using them up with the vouchers?

    How do you find out how many points you have.
    Thanks

    The vouchers are points converted to monetary value
    make sure you save them and dont throw them away
    And DONT use them to purchase anything in stores or online
    They are worth 4 times their value traded against clubcard deals. RAC membership is one of them.
    Next time in store ask customer services for the booklet on clubcard deals

    Can anyone explain how I can use my clubcard vouchers to by the RAC solutions package, which gives you the £30 cashback.

    It would appear that you have to log on to the RAC site given earlier (http://www.rac.co.uk/petrol)to get the cashback anyway as just logging on to the general RAC site gives no mention of cashback.

    So is it possible to buy the solutions package with clubcard vouchers and get cashback? Any comments gratefully received. :rotfl:
    If only I'd found this site sooner!! :think:
