Refund of premier points

Hi,

Does anyone know whether I would get my premier points back due to a very faulty item delivered from Argos gets sent back, not taking a replacement. Part paid with Premier points and I know that Argos are scrapping them soon for another set up so just wondered if anyone knew whether I would get a credit for the points or not, it was over £20 worth. Otherwise I may risk taking another table and chair set, I do need them. Any info appreciated.

    I got my Premier Points through my electricity supplier, Scottish Hydro (Scottish & Southern) and I was told that Premier Points were ending in June/July time, think I have to redeem them by 1st July or something like that. As far as I know they are going to be offering this now -

    It's not such a good offer. With the premier points for every £1 you spent on electric you got 36 premier points and once you had a bunch of points you could buy something outright or contribute half and half to a purchase. Now you have to spend £1 for 10 Argos points. Every 500 points gets you 10% discount so good if you are buying big things. Otherwise you can get £1 off a purchase with your 500 points.

    The woman I spoke to about picking up the table and chairs etc reckons they'd refund me back in vouchers for the premier points.

    Thanks for replying.
