  • Ok so I have found that if you have a voucher which is due to expire and you ring and tell them that you are unable to use as you can't get to your nearest Tesco for some reason to use it they will return your points to your account and add them to the next voucher issued

    They will also reinstate expired vouchers as long as they are still on record. I had about £50 worth replaced.

    I have just contacted them as I have only just set up an online account, was saving vouchers (slowly) and some have been reissued in the past and these have expired.
    Anyway, I was told that as they went back to 2013 they should have been spent, as there was a 2 year date on them, I said I was saving and they didn't seem to care and when I mentioned Martin Lewis they said he has no authority to say I can get them renewed. What can I do please

    2 years ago , I called to have some soon to expire vouchers reissued and was told that I had been lucky to call, as at the end of the month, it would no longer be possible and that expired vouchers would be forfeited. However, I have since had a number of reissued limited time vouchers and when I rang the last time, mentioned that it was a pity that I had lost £50 in vouchers as they expired a month ago, only to be told that there was no problem as the £50 was still on record. If told otherwise, I would call again.

    As I just mentioned I did call them and they were less than helpful, saying there was a 2 year expiry date and it was a loss to them for me to spend, so gave the impression I was not losing money! 
    Does anyone have any other suggestions as to how I can get the value added back for my expired vouchers please

    Just gone back to the main site and the write up.
    When I looked to see there were no vouchers outstanding on my account, despite me having them in my hand (not in date). Or is that because I've only just registered for online clubcard account?

    Mine weren't listed online, but I had the vouchers to hand and could confirm the serial numbers.
