Santander Credit

Kind of.

In debenhams we get 25p per account opened. If it has email address and mailing consent we get another 25p and if we get them with shopping cover that's an additional 75p.

The money we get either goes onto our staff card or a giftcard so it can only be spent in store.

Hi amd Welcome to the Forums.
It seems strange that you're being refused store cards.
Do you currently have credit cards?
If you are looking for a first-time credit card consider Capital One Classic, or Barclay's Initial, etc. They are well documented on this forums and site.
You can, however, pop-in or phone your bank (where your current account is with) and see if they can offer you a credit card.

Hi Karl. I have existing cards and have done do for many years. The only reason I applied for the cards I mentioned was to benefit from discounts offered. I have always paid off any balance in full, and this is where the problem with Santander lies I think, after reading The Times article.

I don't need a new credit card - I just wanted the 10% off my £200 purchase and previews of the blue cross sales! Oh well, never mind eh

Yeah that's a good enough reason.
