    However on the bright side..............


    Since you started using the Hive you have collected 3,823 points in interest. The points you have deposited into the Hive and the interest you've collected will be returned to your Nectar balance within 48 hours.

    To say thank you for using the Hive and helping to make the trial a success we would like to give you an extra 3 months interest on your current Hive balance. Look out for 3,183 bonus points in your account!*

    Help! Even though I've had the message saying Hive is no longer happening, my 16600 nectar points haven't been transferred back? What has everyone else experienced?

    Many thanks x

    They seemed to have closed Hive yesterday and say to allow 48 hours for the points to get back to your Nectar account (that was always the timescale to which they worked when you asked for a transfer back).

    So don't panic till Friday morning.

    Mine not back yet...really disappointed as the main benefit was the security aspect. Seems strange to go to the effort of the trial and then cancel it - I had guessed that it would have been launched with fanfare when they cut the points payable at Sains by half in the next few weeks.
    I think....

    Agree about the security aspect. Do you know the second cardholder trick?

    You get a second card, but make that a "collect only" card. You can't spend with it. You then carry that around with you everywhere instead of the "master" card.

    I looked into this ever since I left £170 of points at a self service till .... luckily whoever followed must have been an honest kind of person.

    Have they added just the interest points, or the bonus points as well?

    Thanks, didn't know about this, but have ordered my spare card today. Shocking really that the scheme is so insecure.
