Thanks Westie. I don't think our local Morrisons is geared up for contactless, it certainly isn't at their petrol station.

That's interesting, I've got the main use of my TSB contactless from morrisons petrol stations, and used them across the mid,ands and South Wales and it's always worked contactless.

The other supermarkets apart from Waitrose are very patchy.

It's not pedantry... just wrong.

Quick questions: is TSB contactless cashback calculated based on calendar month periods?

Yes, by calendar month and by transaction date, rather than statement date IIRC

What was the reason for getting less than £5 cashback again? I'm sure it was posted somewhere, can't find it.

That was my understanding but doesn't appear to be the case. Used it for a morrisons fuel transaction on 30th June, was actually statemented on 1st July and not included on June cashback.

My experience as well and the reason why I seldom get full cashback... Very confusing.

I was told you need to spend £100 to get £5 and if you don't spend at least that you don't get cashback.

That is wrong. You get 5% cashback on the first £100 you spend on contactless purchases each calendar month. Example: if you only spend £50, you only get £2.50 cashback.
