Angry Tesco shoppers have flooded social media to complain about a major change the grocery giant has made to its Clubcard loyalty scheme.
The retailer has sent emails to customers telling them that it is reducing the value of Clubcard vouchers when they are spent with Rewards partners such as theme parks, cinemas and restaurants from June - and the fact that this is the second reduction in value in five years has not gone unnoticed with shoppers. Many have taken to Twitter to condemn Tesco for slashing the rewards, hitting out at the 'ridiculous' change and threatening to go elsewhere for their groceries.
As part of the Clubcard scheme, customers can use vouchers in Tesco stores, but they can also currently triple their value by spending them at more than 100 Reward Partners - including Hungry Horse pubs, Pizza Express, RAC breakdown cover and Legoland. The original scheme allowed shoppers to boost their vouchers' value by either twice or four times, but that was reduced to a standard three times the value in 2018, which also sparked storms of protest at the time.
