One coupon in particular has been very useful. An extra 100 points when I use it.

According to the coupon it can only be used once so I was pleasantly surprised when I sifted through my wallet & found the coupon, and it was accepted. I'd already used it but must have accidentally put it back in my wallet instead of the slot under the till. I should also point out that I seem to be extremely clumsy or forgetful as this has now happened at least 5 times.

A decision by stores to switch to self-service tills has opened the door to voucher fraud because this does away with staff checks at the till.
This has allowed customers to scan a voucher and then retain it to use again instead of giving it up.
In July, a Cambridgeshire couple pleaded guilty to reusing a Tesco money-off coupon dozens of times in what is believed to be the first prosecution for voucher fraud.

In a recent mailing the computers at Tesco Towers decided to send me a number of money off & extra points coupons. Most were for things I buy regularly. It's just that I've been buying them elsewhere recently as I don't like Tesco prices.

I've managed to use a few coupons, though some aren't worth it. Even with the money off/extra points it's still cheaper to buy elsewhere.

So I'm wondering if accounts get checked at all?

The coupon's expiry date is the end of May so if I'm not careful I might have a few more mishaps at the tills.


P.S anyone know how long you can freeze orange juice for? I seem to have quite a lot in the fridge

I highly recommend that you stop being so clumsy of late as you will get addicted to it! and it's plain and simply fraud. Yes you are getting away with it atm but you are breaking the law remember! And it might catch up on you, I can remember reading a story of a police officer doing this.

Obviously destroyed his career.

I recommend wombling instead, more fun :cool: and typing in 3 bags reused on the self checkout if you want to be cheeky

Both of those are against the T&Cs of the Clubcard scheme and could (has happened before) see you getting your card and any accrued points cancelled;

17. Members must present their Clubcard card or key fob at the checkout in order to collect points for a transaction in store. Members who forget to do this may have their points added manually up to 14 days after the transaction upon production of a valid receipt, providing the receipt belongs to the claiming member and is based on their personal spend.

and pretty much all this;

8. Tesco may decline to issue, withdraw or cancel Clubcard accounts, cards, key fobs, coupons, vouchers and points, in whatever form, and / or remove a member from the scheme at any time where there is reasonable belief of:

3. any behaviour relating to Clubcard or the Tesco Group that involves theft, misconduct, abusive or offensive behaviour, or supplying false or misleading information.

I would rather do it via tescobank.com but I am not sure if they ask you for your card number that way!
