Cashback cheat

Posts: 1 Newbie
Can anyone help I am certain that I’m being financially cheated by my partner. I’m convinced she uses the cash back option when doing the weekly shopping at ASDA and TESCO and pocketing £50 each big shop then going mid-week for more cash . Is there any way I can trace the transactions. My bank are unable to help, its costing my limited resources big style every month. Anyone experienced this ?

If it's your bank account can't you just check the statements, paper or online? What makes you think she's taking money?Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0

Ask to see a receipt?
Do the shopping yourself?0 -
Report her to the police for suspected theft?
Have you given her permission to use your cebit card?0 -
Your bank account should state if cashback was on the receipt.0

I'm rather presuming that she must be using your bank card, for you to be asking such questions?
If she's using her account or even a joint account, where are you being cheated - it's her money.
And have you asked her?

If you don't trust your partner to use a joint debit-card then you have more problems in your relationship than using it as an ATM withdrawal facility.
I don't think there is a way of knowing how much of a debit-card transaction includes cash-back.
If they are not trustworthy then the sensible thing would be to either get the card back or claim is as lost or stolen and have it cancelled. Then, pay over the money in cash upon sight of the till-receipt.0 -

My bank statement details not just the debit card payment of £xx but also a subclause of 'cashback of £yy':heartpuls Mrs Marleyboy :heartpuls

financially cheated, thats an interesting phrase. OP, do you have any kind of budget together for the household bills, groceries, housekeeping etc etc etc? Why do you not just ask her?0 -

But mine never has. Hence my using the phrase "I don't think". It seems different banks do different hings.0
