What offers/vouchers did you receive from &More?

I have an M&S &More card and an M&S Chargecard.

I usually get mail from &More about once a month, sometimes more with vouchers offering various amounts of points or money off with certain purchases.

Yesterday I received some vouchers where I can earn 3x &More points, 4x &More points and 5x &More points when I spend on food and also a voucher for 5x &More points when I spend on clothing/home.

Today I received a invite to my local M&S to browse the latest ranges and there will be complementary drink and nibbles. Also with the invite was a voucher for £5 off anything from clothing or homeware.

What vouchers have you received recently?

  • None. Had the card since the end of August and haven't had a thing from them. I remember not checking the box to say that I DID want communication from them so who knows where it's all gone. Maybe just waiting to see how I spend on the card.

    Hi Copperplate, the way I read your message it is as if you said that you don't want any communication from them. Am I reading it wrong? If you didn't want any communication then they will only send you your statement and any Rewards Vouchers you have earned I suppose.

    If you didn't specifically state that you didn't want any communication then you will get some I'm sure. I used to get some whether I was spending nothing on the card (when I had my 0% balance transfer on it) and also when I did some spending. Though I did still use my Chargecard in that time.
  • Sorry, I specified that I DID want communications, etc. from them. So it might come some time before Christmas (10 weeks and counting :xmassmile)

    I'm sure that you will definitely get at least one mailing from them before Christmas.
    They always send out some good offers in December from what I can recall. Also I think last year they sent me a voucher for either £2.50 or £3.50 off in their coffee shop, can't remember the exact value.
  • Mmmmm, always very happy to get money off or money for a free coffee and piece of cake :grin:

    Wondering when all these points are going to arrive though. Does it depend on how much you spend in M&S cos I don't spend a huge amount as such - most of the spending is done outside the group.

    I don't know if it depends on how much you spend at M&S. I still get the same amount of offers as I have done all the time I have held the card which is when they first came out. They offered them to staff first so that was just over 3 years ago now.
    Once you start getting offers they will come quite regularly I expect.
    I don't know what you class as a huge amount, I spend about £30-£50 a month at M&S and maybe another £100 outside M&S on the &More card. It does vary quite a bit from month to month.

    I think the latest set of offers is location dependant as I have a large store near me which is why I was given the £5 voucher to spend next week on either the clothing range or the home range. There is nothing I actually need at the moment though so I might just get some pot pourri or some candles as it will be free! Though I bet I go there next week and the price of everything I want is £6+ which means I will be spending my own money which is all part of their cunning plan!

    I have a feeling that no one who has just got the card will get one of the vouchers this time around but if anyone has got a voucher that has only just obtained the card, feel free to disprove my theory.
    As well as the £5 voucher that I received, some people have been sent out a voucher for either a ready meal worth £3.99 or less or a bottle of Burra Brook wine (you have the choice of either a Shiraz or Chardonnay).

    Please post when you do get some vouchers and let us know what they sent you. I think it is too far into October for them to send you anything now but I would be very surprised if they don't send anything in Nov/Dec.

    I will post up what offers they send me and will wait to see if others do the same.
  • Thanks for the info. I spend a few hundred pounds a year in M&S and the rest of the spending on the card will be outside the group. Works out to be about £16000 a year or so in total.

    Will let you all know what I get from them, if and when they arrive.

    Any info that I can help with I am always happy to provide. Its not often that I am the source of info, usually it is me asking for it!:o

    Anyway, it would be interesting to hear if anyone else got any offers as everyone seems to be really quiet about it if they have!
  • After all this moaning I got an email from M&S last night offering their three insurances - car, life and home. Get a quote OR buy it and you got 250 &MORE points for each one (except the Life which you had to buy, not just quote for) so I duly did the two and should have another 500 points added on to my card. Hopefully :rolleyes:...

    Well thats a start! I guess they won't let you ask for a quote every month though! Now that would be a point earner! ;)
