Urgent! Nectar stopping converting to Amazon vouchers from midnight 31st Jan

Thanks for the notice. I've just cashed in all my crappy Nectar points (worth surprisingly little after 8 years of shopping twice a week at Sainsburys, Dulux store, etc). I only got the card to stop the check-out person from saying "Do you have a Nectar card?" every bloody time!

£80 for me too! Waiting for a very pricey Le Creuset dish to come on Amazon Warehouse.

Vouchers meant to arrive within 3 working days as it says in confirmation emil. Bet they have a backlog! I got the email a while ago telling me of the change. You can still collect points on Expedia which I think is quite good!

Thanks op for pointing this out. I did not realise you could collect points through Amazon, never mind spend them ! Just cashed some in in the nick of time.

For those who, like me, have only just seen this, it may not be so bad. Just looking through Nectar emails and found this:

Save for Double Value this summer
If you're saving up for an extra special treat, you can make your points go even further during our Double Value event this summer. Your points will be worth twice as much – so, every 500 points you put towards selected Nectar Rewards will be worth £5.00 instead of £2.50*.

It will not be able to be used on Sainsbury's shopping, but everything else I assume

Noooooo:eek:

Had been waiting for double value for years, finally gave up and spent nearly all points on Amazon voucher 10 days ago....

Only just caught this thread heading, unfortunately...

Nectar have indeed removed almost all trace of Amazon from the site...

Too late.

Still waiting for my vouchers despite Nectar chasing them up.
