Wanting A New Credit Card With Benefits

Hi all,

I have had a quick flick through on here and on Google and couldn't find a definitive answer and was hoping perhaps one of you would be able to advise me.

I have had a Tesco credit card for about 4 years now. I accrue points on my monthly spend but I rarely use those points so I was wanting to switch another credit card which possibly had better benefits. I know there are some that give you cash back amongst things but I can't really work out which one has the best offers / deals? Could one of you recommend one?

On average, I spend about £1000 per month and I pay the balance off without fail.

Many thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to help and thanks for your time.

  • You do realise you can spend the points online for things like cinema tickets or days out etc?
    You may already know that, but just thought I'd raise it just in case!

    Im also on the lookout for another card at the mo so will be following his thread! ;)

    Yeah I do. I just spent my whole horde of points that I had from years gone by (anyone remember the mobile phone deal, buy one for was it £15 and get 1000 points and do it as many times as you like, sweet!) on the online double up. I think I ended up accruing about £400 of points which doubled up to £800.
