    What does this have to do with cashback at a checkout?
    Giving cashback means that cash does not have to be counted or transported, all comes at a cost.

    The fact remains that Wilkinson is the only exception we know.

    Cashback is definitely reported seperately to card issuers: when I had a debit card with Natwest, it showed on my statement as:

    1 JAN: TESCO 34.18 DR
    CASH BACK 20.00

    I work in a Petrol Station. On our old ePOS system the machine (correctly) detected when a credit/debit card was used and only prompted for cashback on debit cards.

    Our newer tills don't and one of my customers (in the past) asked for cashback. It wasn't until he'd completed the transaction I saw it was a credit card; I warned him about paying interest on a cash withdrawal but nothing ever came of it.

    I've seen Wilkinson's touted as offering cashback on here before in previous threads.
    It's not your credit score that counts, it's your credit history. Any replies are my own personal opinion and not a representation of my employer.
