    Beware of the toolbar, you will prob need to nag them about giving you the points and 50 points a month is only 25p so is it really worth it? I tried it but gave up bothering!

  • Can anyone tell me if this is right. I have £33 nectar points on my card and was at till today in sainsburys and my shopping came to £7-75. I gave her my nectar card but was asked for 25p. Cashier woman said you can only spend the points in £2-50 blocks hence me handing over the 25p difference. I dont spend my points often, so is she right.

  • I concur, the Nectar website says "every 500 points is worth £2.50 off your shopping and you can redeem as many blocks of 500 points as you like"

    Apologies if this is the wrong place but I have points pending from May ,a transaction with Currys online.I have contacted Nectar asking why they're not added and they've asked for details the problem is the email says they will only reply to details typed on the email in a specific place but when I try to type it won't let me :(
    HELP I'm going round in circles,my emails work fine in every other way and there is no blocks or anything.
    am I being cynical in thinking it's a way of me not pursuing the points;)

    Is it an online form on the website? If so have you tried it using a different internet browser - Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome etc.

    You should be able to as its a purchase in store, I havent seen anything that specifies that you must buy food as well, it says that you can spend points on your shopping, so if thats all your purchasing then thats your shopping ! :-)

    Well, that is my logic too, but you never know so I wondered whether anyone tried it..:D
  • Can anyone help?
    i purchased flight and hotels with Expedia back in May when they had a deal on for 5000 points per booking. i made 4 bookings but Expedia and Nectar have since said that the t&c's state it was for New York and Dublin only, but i printed out the T&C's as i though it was too good to be true and they don't mention specific places. does anyone know how i can get these points added, i think i have exhausted the Nectar customer service way...

    very MSE of you to print out the T&C :j . If it doesn't state specifically that you can only book for New York and Dublin, send a copy of the T&C's to Nectar and say if they do not award your points as stipulated, you will contact Justin King, their Chief Executive and the Office of Fair Trading. Keep a copy of all correspondence sent to them.

    good luck.
