    Hello all,

    I was so busy I forgot to do this when I was enquiring! It says I can still do it until 31/08, but do seasoned collectors know if this will still go through with 50% extra via Clubcard if I do it now?

    Thank you

    I forgot as well and booked earlier today. If it doesn't go through, my argument would be that it doesn't specify what time on the 31st it ends, and the Avios redemption page was still advertising the bonus points.
  • I have already had bonus miles via tesco clubcard points in quarter 2 on my avios account and in quarter 3 on my ba avios account, I have both my question is in this new quarter if I exchange vouchers for ba avios and the avios scheme will I get two bonuses I cant seem to find the answer for this anywhere. Thanks
  • Yes, you can get bonus points on both BA executive club and Avios (formerly airmiles) accounts.

    T&C make that offer not particularly attractive

    Absolutely correct.

    I got wind of this offer by a Tescos receipt which stated something along the lines of 'just changed your preferences' on your clubcard account to receive these. Then you got to the T&Cs and you have to do this AND spend £150 in Tescos AND have to use then to buy hotels with Avois (which are very pricey!!) AND within a certain (albeit not tight) timeline.

    I'd rather still get the electronic Tescso vouchers version and have the felxibility.

    Hope I've not made amistake by registering for this but I thought it was just the 4500 bonus that you had to use for flight and hotel? The Avios points you get for exchanging Tesco vouchers are just the same as usual but done automatically.

    Looks like you are restricted to their hotels, this is the catch and doesn't suit me.
    Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.

    I just got round to checking my account and I did get the bonus 50%. Hope you did too. Nice not to have to chase something!
