morning all re, nectar points yesterday I tried to use 3 cards with £10 on each in Sainsburys would not go through message contact nectar I tried again today same message sainsburys c/s lady said she thinks I have to unlock card Do you think if I phone nectar they will ask for all card details names address phone numbers passwords As I am a bit worried as used fictious details when registering cards

I think I have the answer I must buy something in my local sainsburys have points added and that will activate the card and I can claim all points back after 24 hours

Have you checked your options to spend in your online account? CLICK HERE once you have logged into nectar. For example, my husband and son are unable to spend on their cards for security reasons, ie only I have to worry about the value held on my nectar card, they don’t.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I think this must be a Black Friday Special - I have just logged into my account without going through any of the links & booked my child on the train every day next week, on the same order, 1000 points for each ticket - :j :j :j

1 Child
Black Friday Standard Advance £1.50

Wowsers. I can't get that ticket option to show up though. Are you simply going to gwr.com?

I've got it showing now. It doesn't SEEM to work if you are booking too far out but Black friday advance ticket shows up for bookings next week at least

Afternoon all - I am back - couple of weeks in Spain and Portugal, marginally warmer and less rain
Not sure if I was missed as it all went a bit frantic the week before we were away
Dont know if the search facility is working as normal again - if not I will be even further behind than normal.

No wi fi for 2 weeks - OMG - ipad and iphone in the room safe

I know I have missed at least one £2.50 cashback bonus on Thursday but what else have I missed?

Interesting - perhaps that's why some people are struggling with this? Glad it's showing now

People who have booked twice for the 2000 points do you do the same name and email or different ones as the nectar card will be the same thanks

If you collect nectar points you need to get signed up to GWR and start buying tickets from Reading to Oxford next week!

I just tried the 10th Dec and it had reverted to standard advance single with only 2 nectar points - so next week it is
