Daily mail rewards club !

Hi
,its been a while since posting anything here as i have had nothing to ask till now!
The Question is the The dailyMail Rewards club!
Q :So far i have been pleased with it though ONLY if you choose any reward thats not the FLEXICARD ONE:mad:!>>> Very frustrating , i will explain!
I mainly go for the Gold reward which entitles you to the likes of Tesco/WHS /M&S vouchers .They are all sent reasonably quickly but usually a month goes by for you recieve it:cool:.
Well sometimes i have to go for the (Silver reward) which means you can only have this flimsy card made of card with the DailyMail reward scheme printed on it! I have had 2 and finally managed to spend them at Halfords and Boots ! Though for 2 months i turned down points of sale twice when trying to use them as would not go through their sales system!
Crap indeed this Flexecash card is! DO NOT TRY TO CHOOSE THAT OPTION in The Gold reward scheme as you will have to wait ages it seems to be able to spend it though unfortunately you only get that choice in Silver reward!:(
What i cannot understand is the money on the card should be valid as soon as its dispatched?? I think FLEXECASH>> is doing a crafty? Holding onto funds as long as possible to earn interest going into that fund from the Mail and then allowing you to spend it after a few more weeks from dispatch to maximise the interest on that fund! Or unless The Mail newspaper has asked this to be done to have sufficent funds...I have noticed they have suddenly put the cost of their newspapers up by 5p since this scheme has been going:T >>I am sure this is a calculated cost exercise to claim back the money they are having to shed out on all these rewards:money:!
What do you guys & girls think and has anybody else been having problems spending these terrible cards! Even the free £5 tesco gift card they sent free came like a proper credit card to spend ie.Plastic!:A
I want to know why it has problems going through cash till systems and i think tricks of the trade is been played out here on Flexecard part!
Regards

Christ your funny:rotfl:...... The size is good not too big or indeed the USUAL to small standard thats usually used! Its easier to read aswell as reading back to see what you've typed;)
By the way i don't use glasses for anyone else prepared to make a silly comment on size of font! On reply or a serious answer to the Q please!0 -
I agree with the font issue - it makes for very difficult reading unless you are a child.
I have always gone for Tesco/ Morrisons vouchers and as you say arrive a few weeks after order and I have never had any difficulty having them accepted at the tills.0 -

Well,Mr.Jones... i think you have got muddled with what i asked ! The normal cards come as either vouchers/notes or indeed proper giftcards like the ones you mention and yes no trouble with using the credit on them ... i am asking about the flexecard with mutiple use at 8 shops like ones i mentioned!
As some seem to be confused with this or any other reader that can offer advice, here's a bit more info to get it !
System Mail is using >>http://www.flexecash.com/flexecash/love2shop-retail/home.htm
What the card print looks like is similar to the design of fonts on the reward page >>https://mailrewardsclub.mailonline.co.uk/WeekendClub/
By the way i have replied in the really small font for Font size fetish complainers.0 -
Fontastic!

Sorry but the font is far far to big, I swore when I opened the page.
However, I did read, sorry if I'm mistaken, are you asking about the material for want of a better word that the cards are manufactured from and the fact that these "cards" won't go through the till?
If thats the case, I would get in touch with customer services and see what they have to say about it.
As far as the interest element goes, do you have to wait for a specific date before you can spend? I've never taken up the offer so I don't know. I wouldn't imagine they are hanging onto the money, more a case of getting people into the shops on a staggered timing. Hopeing you might buy more when your there. :rotfl:0 -
I've used the card without a problem.0

The font size in the OP is absurd.
And what's it to do with credit cards, anyway?0
