I'll take that one squarely on the jaw, as it is deserved.

Given what has happened, i'm going to try and put all of that in the past, and move on with a more positive attitude.

Hopes other people can do the same.

Welcome back FQ!!

Hiya,

I just got 2 x £20 Next gifcards and no discount came off. Did use a £5 off HH and got 200 points so still happy. Wondering if there is a lower limit I wasnt aware of?

I've just remembered where I saw the offer, (after phoning Tesco, 15mins! & then them not knowing anything about it!).
It's on page 132 of the new mag. 100 points when you spend £20 or more on a single branded gift card. Excludes Tesco & Visa branded gift cards.
So if you wanted to buy a £50 card it'd be better to split & buy a £20 + £20 + £10. I don't think they do £30, or you could possibly get 2 x £25. I think different cards have different values if that makes sense.

Keep them on the line as long as possible, its a scam, but every couple of minutes they're faffing around with you, they're not bothering anyone else.
Lines I use :-
Hold on I'll switch the laptop on.
Hold on theres someone at the door
Just a minute the kettles boiled
I've got to go for a dump
The baby is crying
I've spilled my drink
All are good for a couple of minutes, when I get bored I just say, hold on a second, then I put the phone down and go for a walk.

Ha Ha another good one is just chat for a bit then just put the phone on the side DONT hang up as untill you end the call they cant make another call from that line trust me it works i was once working for a cold calling company and have listened to a whole episode of coronation street through the telephone line lol because they just put the phone by the tv :rotfl:

Soory to confuse. I have the coupons for the extra points, its the 20% discount we were querying. Seems to work on some but not others. The 20% didnt work on Next but does on Archia

Has anyone noticed that M's have started doing the equivalent to BM? I can't suss out whether it goes on minimum spend or number of different items. My mother got one this morning for £1.57 (but she threw away the receipt before I could check how she got it :rotfl: )
