credit card stopped charging interest

I have a tesco credit card which I have had for years, I am not in arrrears with it, sometimes pay the minimum amount sometimes more. I have just realiased that since January they have stopped charging me interest and I am not sure why, i did have a repayment plan a couple of years back with it for a few months but once i got back on track i t went back to normal payments. Can anyone shed any light on why the interest is no longer being added on. Thanks

    Best phone and ask, or better still write to them.

    Is the card still active (can you use it)?

    Since nobody else has suggested it, you should ring them and ask.
