Tandem to start charging £6/mth for cashback credit card - MSE News

i'm def cancelling, only use Tandem abroad where my Amex not accepted, pay in full every month and not prepared to pay £6 per month. Also had issues recently where Asda petrol stations refuse to accept any Tandem cards so the fee is final insult

Tandem are nailing their colours to the mast. No more cash back for paying in full customers without a fee, which in most cases will be equal to the cash back. Smoke and mirrors and the idea you won’t pay interest as long as the debt remains and accumulates astounds me, a recipe for encouraging debt. I will move back to the Halifax clarity card for overseas, and maximise Amex as much as possible in the Uk. Sadly the latter is also changing for Costco customers, a double whammy for me! All in all the cash back bonanza is coming to an end, unless you have an Asda card and shop there 1% in house, 0.2% elsewhere. Time to make better use of a Starling Bank account too me thinks!:rotfl:
