    Just checked mine, still says 5 Sep 2025 ...  Was your previous end date also 5 Sep 2025 ? Hopefully they are rolling out the extension in waves and I'll get it also.

    Mine has been extended as well to the end of November. Might pay my self assessment tax bill using it, or is payment ot taxes and exemption?

    I didn't get cashback when I used the card to pay the council to park on my street as it was classed as a 'Government service', so I'd be surprised if you get cashback from HMRC.

    Nice, 1.5% is if you invest it in a pie right? If you dont invest its 1%?

    I think the normal rate is 0.5%, not 1%. I've now got a pie with just over 2 VGOV (UK Gilts) shares in it. £30 or so, accumulated over 4 months since they started this promotion. We're not talking big bucks here. £15/month limit

    I don't think the transaction would even be processed.  212 doesn't work in the post office of for things like paying a credit card bill.

    I’ve bought postage in a post office with a T212 card. No cashback though as it was classed as, “government services.” I’d guess paying your SA tax bill will be classed as the same.
