    There may be different ones around - believe the newest one in store brochure one
    will give you something like 3500 cubcard points ( £35 in tesco vouchers / £140 if converted to deals), but online application does not seem to need a code to get the 3500 points- drip fed over 12m ( but I could be wrong - so useful to get the code if you can, just in case)

    that said, other than the free points, would not have thought their policy was best price you could get ( another 1000 pts for proving this)

  • help me!!......

    I signed up online for the life insurance £5 per month because of the points...

    nothing has appeared on my clubcard statement so I just phoned them up..

    they say they had NO points offered on life insurance between June & Oct 05 - I signed up in Sep....

    I'm stuffed unless I can prove otherwise...has anyone got anything I can use as evidence?

    cheers

    That's nice. They tell you one thing in one place and something different in another. A lot of hassle for a small number of points. Its not as if Tesco are that well priced on life cover either.

    It does say that the points will be staggered over 7 months. The point is if you took out the minimum amound of life cover for £5 a month for 7 months then you would get £140 worth of clubcard deals for £35 spend. Not sure when the cut off point is so some say to pay the 8th month then cancel.
