Hiya ,I've seen some 100 points vouchers on Ebay and i'm thinking buying some but I'm not sure what to offer for 500 points, I undestand it will get me £20 in deals, Do you think £9.99 is too much for 500 points ? I don't want to insult the seller by offering too less, but not sure what you pay for oints as a bit new at this, the item number is 150365754023, any help would be great x

How are you planning to use them? Deals? If so then £10-£15 seems reasonable.

just be careful...you can buy points but not use them in every deal....something to do with the cardholders details...read the "small print" on the ebay adverts carefully

so is this the Clubcard (2) they have been advertising then?

or is this gonna be like the nectar thing, where they have doubled the points, but the value has halved, so you still end up getting the same amount?

News release….

I have the press release here. No changes to the value of the points, you can still quadruple them up for deals etc (although Virgin holidays now have a £700 per person limit on the vouchers).

TESCO DOUBLES CUSTOMER REWARDS IN FURTHER BOOST TO CLUBCARD

- Almost half a million new customers sign up since May re-launch -

Tesco today announced the launch of Double Points on Clubcard giving customers even more reasons to shop at Tesco and making the UK’s most popular loyalty scheme bigger, better and more rewarding.

From Monday, Tesco Clubcard holders will receive double Clubcard points – two points for every £1 they spend across the store and online as Tesco says an even bigger thank you to shoppers.

The move is the next phase of Tesco’s Clubcard re-launch, following the success of ‘Double Up’ which doubled the reward for customers on selected categories and has attracted almost half a million new Clubcard customers in just three months. In the same period more than 1.5 million customers doubled up their vouchers with the most popular categories being clothing and wine.

Now Tesco has made a major change to the way customers collect points by automatically awarding double points across the store and online making Clubcard simpler and even more rewarding for customers.

Announcing the launch of ‘Double Points’, Carolyn Bradley, Tesco's UK Marketing Director said: "The UK’s biggest and best loyalty scheme just got even better for customers who stand to double their rewards simply by continuing to shop at Tesco. No other supermarket offers customers the low prices and great promotions they want as well as a big thank you for shopping.


“Clubcard is our unique way of rewarding customers for their loyalty and our latest research tells us that it is more important to them than ever before. As the rewards just got even bigger with Double Points we expect more customers will see the no catch money saving advantages of Clubcard and sign up. Why wouldn’t you? It’s free, it’s easy and all you have to do is shop!”

The move will help millions of families around the country make their money go further and has been launched in time for customers to receive vouchers in their next mailing before Christmas - the time when most customers need help to stretch their budgets.

A family spending £90 a week at Tesco* between now and Christmas could now earn £34 in Clubcard vouchers instead of £17. Vouchers can then be spent in store or online or exchanged for up to 4x the value on a great range of Clubcard Partner Offers. £34 in Clubcard Partner Offers vouchers is enough for a return flight to Paris just for doing the weekly shop!

Points can be collected on and used to buy products across the store and online from one of Tesco Direct’s best selling TVs - Panasonic 42” full HD LCD TV with built in Freeview - priced at £649.97 (earning customers 1298 Clubcard points instead of 649 points) to popular gift ideas such as a Nintendo Wii Console & Sports pack + Wii Fit priced at £219.97 (earning customers 438 Clubcard points instead of 219). The more customers spend at Tesco the bigger the rewards.

When stores around the country close on Sunday afternoon thousands of staff will work through the night to prepare the store for the launch and a nationwide marketing campaign will also begin which will include new television and print adverts.


* excluding petrol and Express stores.

Does anyone know how this effects clubcard plus? Do we now get 2 points per £1 from the normal shop and an extra 1 point for paying with clubcard plus?

If this is true , then we will see a quicker build up, so suppose I can see why restrictions placed on virgin/cosmos .. will just have to play the game... although suppose the points already held are being de-valued a bit by imposing these restrioctions

payless

wait will interest if fuel gets changed , and if changing the credit cards accrual

I phoned them up and although the clubcard plus customer service didn't even know about the new double points in store, they did eventually confirm that clubcard plus users will receive the 2 points in store and an extra point from Tesco personal finance. So 3 points per £1! :T

Hi.

Have also checked by phone and advisor has told me he checked it with Tesco Business Support and they have confirmed 3 points per £1 of shopping paid for on the Clubcard Plus. :beer: That means 750 points a month for me now without trying and some extra vouchers ready to spread the load at Christmas.

Shame it isn't for fuel, as I spend £60 on that a month too.
