Tesco "Virtual" Accts and converting into Deals

Hi, I'm new to both clubcard points and this forum, so a big hello to all you old-timer diehards :j
I've tried to glean as much info as possible so hopefully I know all the basics, I've already got a registered clubcard, and i'm using it wisely by shopping online and maximising points, I understand banking and i'm doing ok, I live by myself and already during feb i'm over 3000pts...so not too bad! :T
I do want to however use all the tools/tricks available and my question is regard to the virtual card system. I have now just set up a virtual card using my own surname ans a variation of my first name. My logic for this is the deals I want to convert my vouchers to will have the Clubmembers name on, and the deal partner will not accept different names, but I can get away with my variation.
I'm now looking as to the best way of using this "Virtual" card. Should I use it ust like I use my normal one, bear in mind that I will be paying the checkout with my same card I use on my "normal" card...would that cause probs? Or should I log into my "normal" acct and change the clubcard number that is allocated to that acct to my "virtual" card each time I want to use it then revert the numbers back at the end?
Any help would be appreciated, or if there is an even better way?
I notice that all clubcard vouchers now will have codes on for online use, I am guessing that these wont be transferable between clubcard accts, and because my deal vouchers will be printed with actual names on, it's important I get this right.
Thx
Sarah
