    Yes, it is a supplementary card . But I was thinking that if I apply for a new Amex cad in his name, the bonus nectar points for joining would go on if I linked his card to Amex. The number will be different to mine. Otherwise, perhaps I should just pick up a new card in Sainsbury and then use that instead - the bonus points would be on a completely different account instead of all together with mine but that wouldn't matter.

    Dw has a supp nectar card on my account which links fine to amex completely separately from my main card on the same nectar account.
    I think....

    And another thing, what is MSE Martin on about referring to !!!8220;tweaking the wrong nipples!!!8221; of student finance? At what point was this appropriate language for supposed serious journalism about an important topic?

    Most odd, particularly in the current climate.

    I am currently leaving VM for Plusnet. VM have tried to call me at least twice a day for the last week. I have not yet taken their call but, to be honest, their CS has been so poor they would have to pay me to stay.

    My vm runs out in april, this year paid 11 per month after account credit for 50 fibre which I thought was a lot as about 50% more than previous year but this year it looks like it will double to 20 quid. May go for whoever offers the most upfront cash in the hope that they increase price within minimum term allowing no penalty switch....

    I got a reasonable deal last year, having been with them a good few years. However, within the year it has steadily risen and doubled. So I'm going for fibre & line only (only have basic TV anyway and can do with free view and free nowtv codes) with Plusnet for less than half price plus £70 TCB.

    AP is changing to G00gle Pay according to a message on the app. Hopefully an opportunity for a new promo, as they have just gone to the effort of raising awareness of AP?

    Quidco 75 plus I get a banner saying 20 bonus for bb switch before midnight tomorrow (wednesday).

    Only problem is talktalk have no price rise promise so no end contract early get out...

    Thank you - that's what I was hoping . So, provided DH is accepted I should be able to get the bonus points added to the main account.
